Reloved Upholstery and Design

For years I have loved chairs, not purely on an aesthetic level but also for their silent, dependable functionality. I started Reloved Upholstery because of this love of chairs, fabric and interiors. The history of the chairs is part of the excitement of restoring and upholstering them ready to be reloved in a new home. When I strip-back a newly discovered piece, the chair reveals its history this

is always a great thrill for me. The signatures of master framebuilders, long lost curios such as dusty old sixpences or even hand-scrawled notes stuffed into the depths of the chair hint at where the piece has come from and I find this endlessly fascinating. I specialise in sourcing beautiful mid-century chairs from the likes of G-Plan, Greaves & Thomas and Parker Knoll, all of which are known for the their timeless design, quality of workmanship and robustness. A carefully curated library of fabrics from traditional to modern is available to my clients to choose the perfect finish for their design classic. Working with high quality materials like Harris Tweed means your soon-to-be-reloved chair will not only look beautiful but that it will last for years to come. My workshop is located in the inspiring surroundings of the Art Work project on the border of Salford and Manchester. Feel free to drop in and take the weight off your feet if you're in the area.
