Upholstery Restoration

Upholstery is a difficult subject to pursue because so much of historic seat furniture has been re-stuffed and recovered over the years altering its original appearance. One of the things invariably lost is the original sense of line.

At Danbury Upholsterers we have carefully studied the best surviving examples of traditional techniques and pride ourselves on having a keen eye for correct proportions.
