Vintage Parker Knoll deep button club chair –  bespoke upholstery

This week we’ve had the pleasure of  working on a vintage Parker Knoll deep button club chair.  We collected the chair from the client’s home in Heaton Moor, Stockport.  Although in great condition, it was clear that the green velvet fabric had seen better days.

Now complete, we think this little beauty looks rather regal once more. Upholstered in Moon & Sons charcoal grey (100% wool), with deep button detail, we stripped the chair of the old fabric, replaced the cushions and padding before reupholstering with this rich new fabric.  We also stripped back the wood and waxed to enhance its natural colour.

For Parker Knoll fans

Keep a look out for more Parker Knoll classics on the blog and in our store.  We’re currently working on the wingback 750 –  it’s going to be yellow! And we also have waiting in the wings, two  bent arm mid century Parker Knoll 714’s coming in soon. More on those in the coming weeks.
