    You did a great job of restoration, I can only imagine the "Before" pics! What do you muse about when you sit in it?
    I have a Koken marked strop that I take everywhere I travel. One would look good hanging on or about your chair.

    Absolutely gorgeous work! What kind of stuff did you have to do? New velvet? Or just clean the fabric? What all did that baby take?
    I hand sanded and stained all the oak. Sandblasted the metal and had it powder coated. then I had to take it to a friend to have it re-upholstered. If you look at the side of the chair on the old pic, you can see I also changed the wood carvings on the side.
