Laura Ashley Chair

The seat ready for work.

This modern Laura Ashley Chair had a grubby cover and it needed to be replaced.

Chair stripped.

The old cover was removed and fortunately the frame lent itself to being recovered.

With a clean and vibrant cover on, this chair will give many more years of comfortable service.

Bar Stools

The seat with original cover

These four modern Bar Stools needed new covers. The way the original cover had been made and attached could not be copied – so a different method was used for adding the new cover.

Victorian Tub Chair

The finished chair with new seat cover in place

This delightful chair, with new fabric and revived polish work, will give many more years of service.

Mind you, the seat needed some attention and a new seat pad was needed as well.

Whether or not this is a tub chair is a bit moot since the arms are much lower than the back.

Bentwood Chair

The original seat

A new cover to fit in with new decor was wanted for this modern Bentwood Chair.

The chair was manufactured by TON, the Czech heir to the legacy of bentwood innovator Michael Thonet, who established a furniture factory in 1861 and still bending wood!

The way the upholstery was held in place again surprised, showing the innovative ideas applied to modern furniture.

Oak Bench

The fine but worn tapestry

Sometimes a project has some to and fro – like this one!

Working with the owner, the old but treasured embroidered cover was removed, cleaned and remains on the Oak Bench – although hidden from sight!

The finished stool

The tapestry was probably added by W Frank Gadsby who are still in business in Leicester. The price of £11.55 tells us this was after decimalisation – so later than 1971.

Two Seater Sofa

Sofa in original cover with new seat cushion and cover

This Two Seater Sofa needed a new cover.

A new seat cushion had already been made with the Winged Chair project – a seemingly similar design but in practice there were many differences.

The finished sofa from the front

The sofa was stripped, then the new cover added, trimmed with decorative nails. To see the details follow this LINK or click on any of the images.
