Jason requested something different for his Montana cabin, a little more worn with a club chair look.

We started with really rough 1950’s rosewood panels, after many hours they came out great, all aluminum parts received a ‘Dirty Brass’ finish reminiscent of the Warrior. Last in the puzzle were the cushions upholstered in a gorgeous Townsend hide.

Henry Ford said “you can have it in any color you want, as long as it is black.” I’m sure if Charles & Ray were alive today they would say “you can have it in any color you want, as long as you enjoy it” The world doesn’t have to be upholstered in black leather.

A very popular chair in commercial settings throughout the 80s and early 90 then stopped dead.

You can pick these up thrashed for next to nothing and with a bit of humemodern skill turn them around to look quite sweet.

Correct trim means perfect look.

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.
