New for old

Old Parker Knoll type wing chairs are something we are often asked to recover. This particular one was of great sentimental value to its owner but it needed to suit a fairly modern room and be brought up to modern standards of flame retardancy. So the the upholstery was redone completely. We used a beautiful, hard wearing  Romo striped  fabric and  the legs were painted to coordinate with the fabric and the room.  Stunning.

This could be a great chair to use as a project on an upholstery course.  They are inexpensive to buy often as little as £10 or £15 .
