Bedroom Ironback

Original chair - loose cover, no buttons.

This delightful chair with its very floppy back, held, as for so many projects, a host of surprises.

The chair had a loose cover, using an identical fabric to the fixed cover below – but with buttons.

Iron backs were very popular in Victorian times but while this chair was old, it was still much newer.

To restore the chair, the back and seat had to be separated, then rejoined. That’s unusual!

The end result, covered in a heavy, robust fabric, was quite a sight.

Iron Back

Iron Back chairs were popular in Victorian times. The back was made from bent iron bars – cheaper than wood at the time – making upholstering a challenge.

This lovely example needed a new seat and back castors as well as a new cover.
