Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @DariaHahn. It's great to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about repairing wicker.

It would be great if you could add an image or two so our members have a better idea of what you're working with. Let me know if you need a hand uploading images.

 You might like to check out some of the previous discussions on repairing wicker furniture. It is not a particularly easy process to reweave larger damaged portions of wicker. If it's just a small amount of damage, then individual strands can be added to patch it up. Unfortunately, I am not aware of any products you could use for this purpose.

One we can see the damage you are trying to repair it will give our members a much better idea of the best way to approach it.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi @Jesmond,

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for your question.

It looks like the wicker wrapped around the front bar of the chair has split, but it looks like there is still plenty to work with.

As there still looks to be plenty of material, it has just split, I'd suggest rewrapping it and gluing the split pieces together with Araldite Epoxy Glue. 

Apply a spot of glue to each end and hold them together for 5 minutes while it sets.

Unfortunately, I am not aware of a suitable product to replace the broken wicker.

Let me know if you have any further questions.
