Furniture Repair and Restore

The leather had hardened in places, had stains and the straps needed replacing. The stains and hardness were treated and the old leather straps and hardware replaced

The leather had dried out, faded and worn thin. The arms of the chairs were broken at the joints. They were about to go to the skip until the client decided to try and get them fixed up.

I stripped off the old leather, repaired the arms and then recovered them with natural veg tanned leather, hand dyed to the colour with a bespoke dye made for me.

The lacing you see replicated the original lacing seen in the originals. The rivets used also replicated what was used on the originals.

The dye used was mixed for me by Northants Leather Chemicals Limited.

This is a very large table which had a vinyl inlay. I removed the vinyl, cleaned up the recess and installed the leather inlay.

These nursing chairs had been refurbished in the past. Here, I stripped them down and re-covered with leather.

Renovated foot stools. They were stripped down and the legs sanded and french polished. The covering is in genuine shearling.

This Chaise was rebuilt from the frame up. All old materials were removed. The frame was sanded and French Polished before rebuilding with new foam, dacron and leather.
