New Upholstery Where Needed
In many cases, when the fabric is still in good condition, we simply clean and preserve the vintage textiles to maintain their original charm. However, with antique fabrics, this can be tricky—comfort and cleanliness come first. If the fabric is no longer up to standard, we collaborate with our highly skilled upholsterers, who have extensive experience with antique seating.

Each restoration is thoughtful and in keeping with the piece’s spirit:  

• New single belts are carefully fitted for comfort and durability.
• We select only high-quality materials, like plush velvets and heavy natural linens.
• Every fabric is chosen to enhance the design and honour the piece's history
