Below are pictures of some of the chairs and suites we have
re-upholstered over the years.
Many are showing the before and after.

We re-upholster chairs and suites in Scottish leather.
We use leather from the
Andrew Muirhead tannery in Scotland.

When we have to match leather that for example has been damaged, then World Wide leather is normally used.
This is because leather used on shop bought furniture is not the same as our Scottish leather.

Renovations
&
Re-upholstery




All our renovations come with a 3 year warranty on the leather and our workmanship.

We give a written quotation before any work is started and our terms and conditions apply.

As standard, Leather Master protection cream is applied and a care kit per customer is given.

Repairs to frames, replacing springs , webbing etc is also done.

We cannot explain everything that we do so should you have questions and to find out more contact us by
phone or e-mail


We only use Andrew Muirhead leather in our Re-upholstery.


Mainly we use leather from the Sateen range which has
30 colours to choose from and the Ingleston range which has 48 colours to choose from.

The Sateen range is used in the aircraft industry which has very specialised demands.

The Ingleston range is used in the Marine and automotive market where style, look and feel plus safety and durability are important.

Pictures of the before and after from our workshop

Seating made in leather from the plans sent from an
Interior design company in london.

The back frames were sent to us for upholstery as they had special fixings and we cut the base wood work to shape and fitted the foam cushioning and upholstered in the chosen leather.

The completed seating is sitting on the shaped templates.
