Chair reupholstered in Ross fabric – bark inspired
A modern chair restored and reupholstered in Ross fabrics.
Pub and restaurant seating – this one in a Linwood fabric
Cosy pub that serves bistro food – reupholstered seating area.
Nothing wrong with the ‘old style red vinyl seating’ but this is rather refreshing – our customer had an upmarket vision for her pub and it looks lovely – who’d want to go home!
Ercol Studio Sofa
Delighted to restore this quite rare Ercol Studio Sofa – from probably the 1960’s
Very special!
Victorian nursing chair – pheasant pattern
These occasional antique chairs originally designed as a nursing chair work as a lovely feature and occasional seating.
Our customer chose the distinctive pheasant fabric that I think really changes the look to a modern classic.
A clever combination!
Traditional wingback chair restored and updated with an ‘on-trend’ fabric.
We often talk with customers who want to update or change the fabric on a chair or sofa.
The hurdle often can be the price. It costs more to reupholster say a Next Interiors or Laura Ashley chair than it does to buy a new one. The great thing about the likes of Next Interiors or Laura Ashley is that they are ‘on-trend’ and the fabrics used are very lovely to look at. The negative is that they are made to a price and probably mass produced in China or India – nothing wrong with that as it gives us a great deal – but they are made to a price and engineered to last just a few years with average use.
For value for money and a piece of furniture that will last much longer your better off buying an older quality chair and investing in a restoration of your design.
Here is an example of a fairly standard traditional wingback chair restored and updated with an ‘on-trend’ fabric. Costs a bit more, take a little more time to instigate but made to your style using British craftsmen and quality fabrics. There is no other like it!
200 year old antique dining chairs

Cintique chairs restored including wood frame
Cintique restoration specialists.
Cintique have been designing and manufacturing high quality, comfortable chairs and sofas since 1908.
We are delighted to deliver back to our customer this lovely pair of Cintique chairs that were restored and reupholstered as per the customer specification.
The frame was worn and scratched after some 40 years of use so the customer decided on a full re-varnish of the frames in addition to a full reupholstery restoration- the detailed result below.
It’s so nice to see a bespoke restoration come through the workshop.
Chaise Long restoration
Chaise Long restored and reupholstered to ‘as-new’.
Ready to serve and look stylish in any home for another 100 years
We restore antique furniture as originally built using tie-in coil springs and modernised wadding with rubberised ‘horse hair’. So the result is a classic handmade piece of historic furniture you can use every day and will last far longer than a modern version. I’m in love!

One of our favorites; Duresta sofas and chairs often visit our workshop.

We are Duresta repair specialists and recently replaced all arm fabric and facing that was a favorite cat clawing post. Fully deconstructed and replaced with the original fabric to as-new.
Indeed we can reduce the frame size on all sofas – we reduced a Duresta three seater sofa to exactly fit a bay window recently.
