Parker Knoll Chairs Reupholstered | One of Our Specialties At BJ Upholstery are Parker Knoll, we take pride in reupholstering Parker Knoll chairs, one of the brands we specialise in. We recently had the pleasure of working on a traditional pair of Parker Knoll wing-back chairs. The original upholstery was a classic green, but we’ve completed the first chair in a vibrant pink, giving it a fresh and modern look. We’re currently working on the second chair, which will be upholstered in a complementary green, offering a beautiful contrast to the first. We restored the wood legs and under-seat springing too.

Parker Knoll Chairs before
We tend not to publish the “before” images often as they can make our website pages look a bit drab. However, I think this pair of Parker Knoll chairs made in 1950 justifies showing you what we can produce. Consider how much service this pair of chairs has given over the last 74 years. After our restoration, you can see how great they look, how sturdy they feel, and how comfortable they are. This usable pair of chairs are a design icon and from an environmental standpoint It’s the perfect way to furnish your home, and from a design standpoint, why wouldn’t you want something beautiful, interesting, and unique in your home?
A customer purchased this Ercol two-seater sofa from an online auction and sent it to us for restoration. We reupholstered it and added new cushions as requested. To give it a more contemporary look, we made the cushion depth deeper. All the foam was renewed and wrapped in Dacron to create a soft yet firm seating experience. We have transformed this iconic two-seater sofa into a modern, functional piece that looks like a work of art.

Duresta sofas and chairs often visit our workshop.
For over 80 years, Duresta has been synonymous with quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.
At BJ Upholstery, we specialise in the reupholstery, alteration, and repair of Duresta furniture. Whether you want to restore your cherished pieces to their original style or make alterations to suit your needs, we bring our expertise to every project. One recent example is when we expertly replaced the damaged arm fabric and front facings, using fabric provided by Duresta, on a piece that had become a favourite scratching post for a client’s cat. We carefully deconstructed the damaged areas and seamlessly replaced the fabric, leaving the furniture looking and feeling brand new.
We can also customise the frame size of any Duresta sofa to meet your specific requirements. For instance, we resized a three-seater Duresta sofa to fit perfectly into a bay window of our customer’s new home.

We’ve noticed we haven’t shared many before-and-after photographs lately. Initially, we believed customers preferred seeing the finished product rather than the work in progress or the product on the bench. However, we’d like to showcase an example of our traditional craftsmanship. On the left, you can see the chaise lounge in progress, undergoing preparation for reupholstery; Hand-tied coil springs supported by the jute webbing underneath. Additionally, on the back, you can see the preparation for insulating the hand-pressed, hand-tied buttons. While on the right, you can admire the finished article.
