Have A Tired Antique or Vintage Chair With Great Bones?

Let’s give it a new life!

Stripped down, rebuilt, and covered with fabulous fabric, your chair will be loved more than ever.

Allow me to redesign and reupholster your treasured antique or vintage chair, loveseat, or small sofa. Send me photos and measurements, and tell me your vision; I’ll find you extraordinary fabrics to realize that vision. Come in to the studio and peruse my sample collection, or we’ll go online and have some samples sent for you. Whatever you want I’ll order for you; plain or fancy, velvet or linen, print or weave. I carry the finest textiles: Designers Guild, Romo, Fabricut, Kravet, Clarence House, GP&J Baker, Andrew Martin, Osborne & Little, Jane Churchill, Thibaut, Schumacher, Pindler, Rubelli, Ralph Lauren, and many, many more.

Create a Custom Piece That Speaks To Your Soul

I love to source and remake uncommon vintage and antique furniture pieces with modern, vibrant fabrics and saturated paint treatments.

These artisanally upholstered pieces feature techniques normally found in fine antique furniture: coil springs hand-tied eight ways, hand-stitched edges and foundations, horsehair stuffing, feather cushions. I’ll restore a fine piece to its original quality and beauty, with a joyful jolt of modern through vibrant fabrics and refinished frames.

Desiring your own statement vintage chair?

I keep a wonderful selection of vintage and antique customizable pieces waiting for you to choose from, or, bring me your own worn but cherished piece to transform into a modern gem. Don’t have one, or see one that suits you?

I can source a great chair and create a custom statement piece for you.

When we find THE ONE, we consult on the frame’s finish, extent of work, and the fabrics. I’ll help you choose from a curated selection of beautiful fabrics to complement your vision, and order them. When all the materials have arrived, I’ll get to work on your statement seating. This process can sometimes take several months: being confident in the final look and construction of your piece is very important!

How it works:

Since pieces generally come to me in aged, worn condition, they are stripped down to their bare frames and then repaired, refinished, and built back up with new all new materials: webbing, eight-way hand-tied coiled springs, burlap, cotton, and quality foam or horsehair stuffing. When needed, they get a traditional, coir-filled, stitched burlap foundation—a must for some authentic antique chairs and settees.
