Our client thinks this sofa might be French. We wondered if it had Indian origins. We’re still playing furniture detective, so if you recognise the style, tell us what you think 👀

What we do know: the Zepel Casamance fabric looks ridiculously good on it.

French, Indian, or something else entirely?

You probably know us for bringing great old furniture back to life.

But that’s only half the story.

Alongside our mid-century restoration work, we design and build custom upholstered furniture from our Sunshine Coast workshop.

Banquettes. Bedheads. Sofas. Chairs. Ottomans. Custom pieces made for real homes, designers, builders and spaces that don’t come with an off-the-shelf solution.

The restoration work keeps us honest.
The custom work lets us push things further.

Same workshop. Same hands. Same obsession with getting it right.

So yes, you’ll still see plenty of MCM around here.

We’re just opening the door a little wider.

Eight chairs. One family. And a fairly ambitious wish.

This beautiful collection of Alron dining chairs didn’t begin as a matching set of eight. Different backs, different seats, different rails and around 60 years of life had left their mark.

The goal was to bring them together as one cohesive family.

That meant sacrificing and reshaping some of the existing backs to create matching profiles, crafting and shaping new seats, matching rails and repairing the inevitable stress fractures we uncovered along the way.

And we were reminded of one of furniture restoration’s little truths:

Just because something is beautifully designed doesn’t necessarily mean it was beautifully engineered. 😬

There were challenges. There was head scratching. There may have been an unreasonable amount of heavy breathing.

But the result?

Eight strong, beautifully restored Alron chairs that finally look as though they were always meant to belong together.

Danish icon restored. ✨

This Hans J. Wegner GE-258 daybed, manufactured by GETAMA in 1956, came to us ready for another chapter.

Authenticated by Great Dane Furniture, this beautiful oak piece has now been carefully restored and reupholstered, bringing its clean lines, clever daybed design and timeless proportions back to life.

Seventy years old, and still effortlessly cool.

Statement chairs can absolutely be found on Marketplace. You just need the vision to see what they could become.

Creative Cait saw a sculptural silhouette waiting for its personality. Totally her!!

She chose Schumacher Tutsi Green and transformed a simple black chair into something unforgettable. Geo, neon and playful. The sort of chair that refuses to disappear quietly into the corner.

That’s the beauty of upholstery. It isn’t just restoration. It’s storytelling in fabric.

Before and after. Same chair. Entirely different energy. ✨

Miss Fler Norsk is ready for collection tomorrow. 🤗 Our beautiful client wants to keep the total finish a surprise ….so stay tuned for the complete look. What colour cushions do you think she chose.? 🧡💛🩵💙



She’d seen better days. The frame had been attempted to have repairs over the years, parts of which were reassembled upside down 😬

Can you believe we saved this? 🛋️
Most people saw a write-off. We saw great bones, quality craftsmanship and another 20 years of family memories waiting to happen. That’s why we do what we do. ♻️✨

Jan brought this sofa home from Malaysia many years ago after having it handmade especially for her family.

Time had done what time does. The webbing had stretched, the seat had lost its support and while the original blue had served its purpose, it was ready for a fresh chapter

New heavy-duty webbing
Fresh foam and support
A soft textured fabric in Orion Reef
Original timber frame preserved

Not every restoration needs a dramatic colour change. Sometimes it’s about keeping the soul of a piece while making it feel wonderful to live with again.
New webbing straps are what make this sofa comfortable for the next 20 years.
