Loose Covers

This is a chair with loose covers, which always presents a tricky challenge. With this type of design, we rely on the weight of the fabric to pull everything into place, particularly along the sides. You may notice some slight ripples on the arms — this is completely normal at this stage as the fabric hangs. Hidden from view, we’ve added weighted boards at the bottom of each side panel to help the covers settle perfectly over time.

This chair is heading to a well-known hotel in Scotland, and we’re delighted with how the loose covers have been tailored to provide a perfect fit while maintaining comfort and style.

We have finished reupholstering a pair of Howard-style chairs for a customer in London. The end result is a light inviting coordinated pair of occasional chairs. The Howard style chair is a classic fit anywhere chair and these look lovely in a powder blue linen.
