FIL: Isang uri ng paglalala gamit ang yantok, karaniwang nakikita sa mga upuan at muwebles, na bumubuo ng isang butas-butas na padron.
EN: rattan weaving
That classic, breezy pattern on your lola's rocking chair or the back of old-school jeepneys. It's the original air-conditioned seating, perfect for the Philippine heat. If your upuan has this, it's certified Tito-core or Lola-chic. It's what makes a chair breathe.
From Spanish 'silla' (chair), adapted into a Filipino noun for the specific weaving style.
Also spelled as 'sulihia'. Refers to both the material (rattan strips for weaving) and the weaving style itself, commonly known as caning in English.
