SOFA ALTERATION AND REUPHOLSTERY
The client in this case had seen a sofa that she liked and asked if it would be possible to make her existing sofa look similar to it.
After stripping the sofa to the frame,i altered the arm shape to match the new desired shape, by adding new solid beech rails. Secondly, I supplied and fitted new turned and tapered solid beech legs which were then French polished by hand to match my clients colour choice.
Next was the upholstery .The client was also rather keen to have a single seat cushion rather than the three existing cushions, and so a new foam and polyester wadding wrapped interior was supplied .The three back cushions on the sofa were also replaced with taller cases and interiors to match the required style, and to add an extra degree of comfort.
Below is the final finished piece!
