Everyone knows us for saving heirlooms….

What many don’t realise is that custom-built upholstery is where the story began.

For more than 35 years, Simon has been handcrafting furniture from the frame up. Banquettes, bedheads, sofas, chairs, wall panelling and commercial seating, each piece built specifically for the space it calls home.

“Hi, it just needs a little recover…”

This..This is why we say:“Can you send photos first?” 🤝🪑

Some chairs need fabric.Some need counselling, structural intervention and a small miracle.

To be fair… they really don’t make them like they used to. Still standing after decades of loyal service and one very committed favourite sitting spot.

From English heirloom to heirloom reborn. 🇬🇧✨

These Parker Knoll beauties crossed oceans with our client’s grandparents, carrying decades of stories.

So back to proper form they went, fully rewebbed, rebuilt, and supported where good bones deserve. Now they’re not just looking the part… they’re sitting better than ever.

A family piece, restored for the next chapter. Built on history, revived for comfort

Match made in mid-century heaven.
These DQ Viking chairs spent decades apart, loitering in different thrift stores, blissfully unaware they were soulmates.

Reunited at last, strengthened where it counts, polished up nicely, and dressed in fresh new outfits.
Different timbers? Sure. Same vibe? Absolutely.

Proof that good design always finds its way home.

This Cassina Canta swivel armchair, originally designed by Toshiyuki Kita, has been reupholstered in a beautiful Elliot Clarke wool blend, chosen for its soft handle, durability and timeless tone.

The standout feature is its movable armrest–headrest — an ingenious, slightly playful detail that defines the design. Adjustable, sculptural and unmistakably clever, it allows the chair to adapt to how you want to sit, lounge or pause.

A perfect example of late-20th-century design where comfort, experimentation and form collide — and proof that truly good furniture deserves a second (and third) life.

Saved from landfill.
Reimagined with respect.
Ready for another generation. ♻️✨
