Rocking Chair Transformations โ Giving An Old Piece Of Furniture A New Lease Of Life
Furniture can hold memories for lots of different reasons. A rocking chair passed down through generations or you may remember sitting in one during your childhood with a parent or grandparent, for instance.
These pieces of furniture are more than likely to be old and need a little tender loving care, or the fabric may need updating to fit with your decor.
We specialise in the reupholstering of family heirlooms. We love working with old furniture as each piece has its own story and character. The frames were built from quality materials and made by skilled frame makers, something thatโs harder to find these days. We are passionate about preserving these dying processes and skills and we endeavour to give these old but beautiful pieces, a new lease of life. Here are a few examples of client transformations
