California dreaming

May I suggest you enjoy "California Dreaming" while viewing.
Here is a couple chairs that could be back to the 1830's
                         The smaller chair was tottally stripped and restored the base shown below.
                            Dusted out the traditional animal hair stuffings and a cout of fresh cotton.
                           And the larger one hand tied coil springs and traditional jute webbing ready to go.
                      Traditional burlap covers the springs and nosing reset on the seat edges.
                                      More natural stuffings tailored up for a nice crisp base.

                                   And a thin liner to set all the stuffings before the final coat.

Clean crisp staple lines for the gimp cord to be applied.


                             Gave all the exposed wood a scrub down with a restore a finish.




Thanks for looking!
