Celina's Chairs

I am a qualified Traditional Upholsterer and have been working on some fabulous commissions. My favourite of 2013 was the total refurbishment of an armchair for a 15 year old boy's bedroom. We chose Linwood's Mind The Gap fabric and it works perfectly! If you are interested in any of these chairs or would like a quote please email me at [email protected]

This is a Louis-style chair that I decided to paint in Habitat's Dark Grey and then found a fabric to suit it. I decided to offset the leaves on the back of the chair to give them a less linear and uniform look.
