Here are 4 plates from some real old time chairs.
After who knows how many decades they need some attention.
All stripped down.
I glued 1 broken frame back together.
3 coats of upholstery on them.
Shown here with traditional webbing applied with just the right tension.
Traditional burlap on top of the webbing.
This original horse hair saved and dusted out.
Fresh cotton applied before the final coverings.
With a nice clean dust covers.
Leaving all the screw holes visible for the installer.
Clean smooth pleats on the corners.
And the 4 plates mirror tailored.
Complete.
Thanks for looking!
