This stunning 3 piece suite is comprised of a Duresta Hornblower sofa and two Duresta Trafalgar armchairs. Fully restored with new cushions, and upholstered in sumptuously soft jet black Abraham Moon wool. This plain, but beautifully warm fabric offers a contemporary twist to the traditional lines of the furniture.
Our client chose a beautiful turquoise embossed velvet for the re-upholstery of this Edwardian low-armed armchair. The chair originally featured rope piping around the back and arms – but due to the lack of availability of a matching colour, we instead hand sewed each self-piped panel individually. The superb final result is true to the original character of the piece.
This large rectory stool has been re-covered in a contemporary dark blue heavy linen/cotton mix. The job included stripping the pine legs and applying a brown mahogany finish, along with new castors.
This pair of button-back armchairs have been reupholstered in ivory crushed velvet by Sunbury. The client requested contrasting crimson patterned seat cushions, with matching buttoning, and we were happy to oblige.
Nottingham-based Cintique have been making furniture since 1908, and they pride thermselves on the high quality of their products. This fireside chair has been reupholstered in a hardwearing chenille fabric, and featured a buttoned inside back.
The zebra-patterned fabric on this huge Duresta rectory stool was not to the new owner’s taste, so we recovered it in something a little more subtle. The Harris Tweed herringbone wool is wonderfully soft and warm, and will be a fantastic centrepiece for a living room. The tops of the wood turned legs are finished in brown studwork.
We reupholstered this rocking chair in a check wool. We also hand-made a coil sprung seat system (as a cushion) to replace the damaged original. The end result is a lovely little chair restored to its original level of comfort.
This Parker Knoll PK720 wingback chair has been beautifully reupholstered in Sunbury ivory crushed velvet. At the client’s request, the technique used differed slightly from the norm, in that the inside back and wing panels were applied with the pile running ‘upside down’, to create a different kind of shading when the velvet catches the light.
These classic Duresta Trafalgar armchairs have been reupholstered in Art Of The Loom pewter wool. A wonderful traditional design, interest is provided by piping and borders along the arms, bottom of the front and top of the back. These chairs are currently for sale, enquiries are welcome.
This small occasional bedroom chair was reupholstered in grey wool. As can be seen in the photos, we made a new seat cushion using Dunlopillo foam, which is wider than the original, and features notches to sit snugly around the chair’s arms.
