Luckily we worked and worked on removing the thousands of staples and all of the old yucky fabric, then we started over. It cost $35 in new fabric, padding and cording.
This week I was asked to show my Statement Chair and let others know about the Home Décor Resource at One Kings Lane. They have a ton of information on furniture! There are details on different styles, different periods, etc.
On their site, I learned that my chair is based on a 19th Century French design.
(They have this beauty for sale through 11/17/13.)
It's been a couple of years since reupholstering this chair and I still love it! It's definitely my Statement Chair.
Thank you for your visit!
