1880's Iron Back Chair




This chair did test me a little, not only is it deep buttoned, but also because it has an 'Iron Back', everything had to be stitched on by hand! The chair has been fully re-upholstered using traditional tecnique's. In this day and age we normally use staples, but for this perticular project , the customer wanted it to stay as original as possible, so I used tacks to pin everything down!......old school!
