Choosing a fabric isn’t just about picking a color you like—it’s about choosing how a piece of history feels, wears, and lives in your home.

When we look at a restoration project, the upholstery is the soul of the piece. A high-quality fabric doesn't just look "expensive"—it provides the structural integrity to hold those crisp corners, the durability to survive years of morning coffees, and a texture that makes you actually want to sit down.

From the rub count (how much wear it can take) to the way the light hits a velvet pile, the right choice turns a chair from a piece of furniture into a centerpiece.

Let's Find Your Perfect Match
We know that staring at a wall of swatches can be overwhelming. Is it too bold? Is it hardy enough? Does it actually "go" with the wood grain?

Did you know that we offer all our clients a free one-hour fabric consultation? We love sitting down and navigating the world of weaves and patterns to ensure your restored piece is exactly what you dreamed of.

Not local but love our aesthetic? If you’re too far away to work with us directly but want that signature look for your own projects, you can now book a remote fabric consultation (for a fee). We’ll chat over the phone or video, dive into your style, and curate a range of premium samples to be sent straight to your door.

Let’s make sure your next project feels as good as it looks. DM us to book your slot!

These bridge chairs had a serious glow-up!

We took this classic shape from its tired, vinyl days and gave it a full blown makeover. Swipe to see the "before" .

The rich wood tones are back out of the shadows, and that Art Deco-inspired velvet?
We picked colour of the timber to be repeated in the fabric.

Reupholstered in a bold, geometric velvet that demands attention.

It’s basically a sunset you can sit on. Whether it’s for a morning espresso or a late-night cocktail, this beauty is officially ready for its second act.

Found a diamond in the rough that needs some love? Send us a DM—we love a good comeback story.

1950s CURVES in slick VELVET

This dreamy 1950’s kidney-shaped sofa just had a glow-up… and we are obsessed.

We reupholstered her in the richest olive green velvet, bringing those sculptural curves and tapered timber legs back to life. The curved back, panel detailing and soft sheen of the fabric give it that perfect atomic-era glam — bold, playful and unapologetically mid-century.

She’s moody. She’s elegant. She’s ready for cocktails at 5 🍸

Bringing a piece of mid-century history to a snowy Japanese retreat! ❄️🇯🇵

These TV Chairs were the ultimate 1960s lounge essential? Designed specifically for ultimate comfort while settled in for an evening of television or reading, their sleek, tapered timber frames are the definition of MCM style.

This particular beauty is embarking on a serious journey. It’s heading off to live in a snow chalet in Japan with its owners! 🏔

To prepare it for its new home, we knew the textile choice had to be perfect. We landed on Akito from . Not only is it incredibly durable, but it’s a beautiful nod to its destination—Akito has Japanese origins, meaning "Bright Person." ☀

The warm, textured weave is the perfect contrast to a snowy mountain backdrop. From a vintage find in Australia to a cozy chalet in the Japanese Alps—this chair is living its best life.
