This is the fabric we chose. A cut velvet damask by Fadini Borghi.

The depth of the cut pile, the way the pattern holds, the weight of it in your hands - this is Italian mastercraft at its best. Fadini Borghi's weaving heritage reaches back to the 13th century, when Italy introduced silk weaving to Europe. It was the French who eventually brought those skills across the Alps - Italian weavers were deliberately enticed to set up in Lyon and Tours, and it was that tradition that would later dress the court at Versailles.

So not French, as such. The best of it started in Italy.

For a chair like this, the fabric needed to bring the same quality as the frame itself. Something that could hold its own against a piece with that much character. This does that.

Before we started, this is where we were.

A beautiful antique Louis baroque chair - the proportions exactly right, the frame absolutely worth saving. The original fabric, though, had no real connection to the chair at all. It had never done the piece justice.

This is the kind of project we enjoy. Over the next two weeks, we'll take you through the whole process - from here to the finished chair.

The Aura Stripe from James Hare's Artissima Collection is one of those fabrics that earns its place in a scheme.

It's a bold, contemporary take on linear pattern. Clean stripes blended with softly blurred, hand-painted ikat forms, so there's movement in it, depth in it. Not just a stripe.

Expertly printed in England with an impressive rub test, it works just as beautifully on upholstery as it does at the window.

The Artissima Collection is available to view at our showroom on North Bar Within, Beverley. Pop in and see it for yourself - there's a difference between looking at a fabric online and holding it in your hands under the right light.

From bare frame to finished chair. This is how a Lugano is made.

Every Lugano that leaves our Beverley workshop goes through Steve's hands. Frame first. Then the springs. Webbing and foam next. And finally the fabric, pulled and pinned until it's exactly right.

The Lugano actually started life as a dining chair. About 15 years ago, a client from Mayfair asked for something more generous - a deeper seat, a wider frame, a chair you could really settle into. We re-worked the proportions, and that became the Lugano. We've made countless of them since.

The pictures show it in Jane Churchill's Kilver - a folk-inspired print with the feel of a gently worn antique Persian carpet, rich in colour and texture. Beautiful fabric on a classic chair.

We have a Lugano in the showroom at the moment, upholstered in Jane Churchill's Cleo - an animal spot velvet that couldn't be more different in mood. Worth popping in just to sit in it, get a feel for the shape and the depth of the seat.

Not keen on either fabric? That's the whole point. We can make yours in whatever cloth you choose, and change the leg colour too. The one in the pictures has walnut legs - but that's just one option.

Come and see us at 47 North Bar Within, Beverley. Monday to Friday, 10am–4pm. Evenings and weekends by appointment - just give us a call on 01482 886222.

Bettina by Colefax & Fowler - a pattern worth knowing about.

The delicate beauty of open peonies is captured in this softly painted floral, each bloom shaped by a nuanced interplay of tonal colour. Bettina reflects the charm of early twentieth-century block printed florals, where botanical refinement meets confident artistic expression. Soft washes of colour bring vitality to the leaves - a distinctive detail that celebrates the character and craftsmanship of this enduring tradition.

One of those patterns you really need to see in person. The pattern book is available to view in our showroom now.

Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm - or by appointment if that suits you better.

This is a scheme we've put together here in our showroom.

We started with an embroidered fabric. Added tassel fringing for texture and movement. Pulled Zoffany paint colours from the weave itself, then brought in a coordinate fabric for the pelmets to tie it all together. Every element chosen with the full picture in mind.

The weight of the fabric, the way the fringing catches the light, how the paint sits alongside it - these are the things that make a scheme work, and they're the reasons we put displays like this together. So you can see exactly how everything sits before any decisions are made.

If this is the sort of thing you've been thinking about for a room at home, we'd love to help. We're open Monday to Friday, 10am to 4pm - just call in, no appointment needed. Or if you'd prefer to have a chat first, give us a ring on 01482 886222.
