I stumbled upon 2 incredibly elegant but dilapidated carver chairs some time ago and was extremely delighted to discover that they are genuine Parker furniture, a feel of the curved arms had me seduced, despite the damaged velvet fabric (
before pic)... a project!
So here's the after of the first of the 2. A re-upholster in black linen, the ampersand feature back rest panel is a piece by
Auntie Cookie, and on the reverse... bold black and white stripes - delicious!
Now, to keep or sell? If you love it as much as I, check it out at
Shop Handmade (Canberra city) before I decide to buy it back myself!!
Love Nina x
*Many thanks to
Design Sponge for featuring my chair!
