Antique Victorian Mahogany Setee Restoration

Our client purchased this antique Victorian mahogany with rosewood and mother-of-pearl inlay setee, shown below. at a consignment shop. The beauty, size and stability of the peace was noteworthy. Parris Restorations fully restored and reupholstered the setee with linen fabric and modern stainless nail heads. Our work enhanced the beauty of this peace and gave it a modern update while maintaining the original integrity of the piece. The client was thrilled because it’s difficult to find new furniture that is made with such high quality and workmanship at an affordable price.

The finish was worn in several places. There had been a poor attempt to refinish certain spots. In addition, the upholstery was badly worn.
