Type of palm often used to make furniture (6)

I believe the answer is:

rattan

(Other definitions for rattan that I've seen before include "switch" , "Climbing palm used for wicker and canes" , "Palm cane used in wickerwork" , "Stems of palms used for furniture" , "Plant with stems used in wickerwork" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
