Putting gorgeous new fabric over thirty-year-old crumbling foam is like repainting a car with rusted floorboards. The fabric looks stunning on day one.

Hand-tied steel springs, fresh high-density cushion fill, and reinforced joints make a solid hardwood frame sit better than anything sitting on a modern showroom floor. Have you ever stripped down an old family chair just to see what was actually hiding inside?
