Loose cover for 3 seater sofa delivered last year. My client wanted a new cover made that was a little bigger than the existing one so it was easier to get on and off.

Fabric client’s own material.

Pair of oak Arts & Crafts dining chairs rebuilt from the frame up.
These chairs were reupholstered using all traditional techniques, swipe through to see some of the stages, the wood was cleaned and restored too.
They have been recovered in a rich, red tapestry fabric from the Archive weaves collection that suits them so well, finished off with decorative nails.

Funny job this one… part way through my client sadly passed away. Her health hadn’t been good but it was still a surprise, and most sad of all she was so excited to get her chairs and sofa recovered but never saw any of the final result.

Her husband decided to finish the job and he will now enjoy them with his dogs.

Funny how a sofa can remind you to seize the day.

Gorgeous leather from would highly recommend them, the staff there with were excellent.
Swipe ➡️ for before.
