Le tapissier de sièges

Textile crafts


An upholsterer opens his workshop to you and explains, photo after photo, the basics of his trade. After a discovery of the tools and materials, learn all the stages of the repair of a seat, from the installation of the straps and the springs (winding) to the fabric of cover. Discover traditional processes as well as modern methods (stapling, synthetic materials...). Then follow step by step, with supporting photos, the realization of six attractive projects of progressive difficulty: a simple footstool, a stool, a headboard, a Louis XV armchair, a Louis-Philippe sofa and an armchair with ears. Over 350 color photos.
