71 Again
February 01, 2014
Personally I think you would have to go along way before you find a chair as sexy as the 71.These ones came through our door all crunchy and very smelly! We stripped everything off and re-built the foam and then upholstered in Knoll “Journey”
Check out the perfect piping detail.

A guy practically begged us to buy this from him because he was moving apartments.
Brown, dirty, dusty and i didn’t really want it……so i sold it on to my cousin. She decided to have us refinish it and thats when i found out that Cathy got the deal of the century!!
Stunning Brazilian Rosewood
Ah Bollocks, looks great though
Sitting pretty in weird Austin
Tamboure Desk FOR SALE
January 31, 2014
One owner, used every day for 50+ years then she passed away. 20 years ago these desks got chucked out because of large monitors, now with slim lap tops there back in style and quite lovely I must say.
The perfect solution to a cluttered office, why don’t they make a kitchen counter like this?
It’s For Sale….. Call 310 314 6936

You got to start someplace, may as well be at the bones
Very easily upholstered incorrectly, just not here.
Yes we know that the ottoman is not the real deal but we made it work for the client.
Lots of detail
Ends in perfection

Originally in some kinda black n white “Ouch” print !!
Rusty frame and terrible condition.
Gotta love the print
Sittin Pretty…….
Wire frame was stripped and chromed which was quite a feat, thank you John at PlateInc.
We under took the repair of the fiberglass shell and then re-foamed and upholstered in Haiku Pool fabric
As always its about the small details that make the end result perfect.
Gehry Stick Repair
January 08, 2014
Wonderful and whimsical till they come undone. Same old issue, joints pop and chair collapses. We set about removing all the old urea glue which takes….. forever, and then we reassemble the puzzle using some bad ass adhesive.
Strong and functional for years to come, you go Frank.

One minute you have a book (beer) in hand and the next ya on your back
The back snapped off your lounge. ouch!!
Option 1: Throw it away
Option 2: Fix it yourself
Option 3: Email us for a quote (see below)

If you decide on Option 3 we will repair your lounge chair so that it retains its strength and integrity.
Firstly we are the only company that makes brazilian rosewood replacement lower back panels using a maple plywood core.
Each lower back panel is made using a closely matching grain pattern to ensure panel uniformity.
After restoration and installation of replacement panel your lounge chair will look original and feel perfect.

Delivered to us with a snapped frame due to movers heavy hands. Original eggplant colored frame was sandblasted and welded and then powder coated semi black. Way more sexy now don’t you think.
upholstered arm shell restoration
October 31, 2013
This set arrived with Girard fabric that was threadbare and frayed, unfortunately it could not be saved.
After original covers were removed new ones were fabricated using Hallingdal #270, not as wild as Girard but they get the job done. Lastly the base were polished to a bright finish.
Perfection as always.
