Give your treasured furniture a beautiful, sustainable second life. At my Helston studio, I provide expert furniture reupholstery and repair services across Cornwall, stripping tired seating down to the frame and rebuilding it with attention to detail. Whether you want to restore an antique piece, recover a well-loved family sofa, or collaborate on a completely bespoke piece, I’ll treat every seam and surface with care.

A Personal Touch
Every project is handled personally, from consultation to completion. Being a small, artisan-led studio means I can work closely with you to understand your vision, offer guidance, and ensure every detail reflects your style and needs.
Whether it’s choosing the perfect fabric, discussing finishes, or collaborating on a bespoke design, you have direct access to the craftsperson behind every piece.
Every piece of furniture tells a different story, and every home has different needs. I welcome all standard upholstery projects using traditional or modern commercial fabrics. However, if creating a chemical-free environment is important to you, I specialise in offering beautiful, eco-friendly upgrades, substituting synthetic foams with natural latex, coir, and pure British wool wherever possible.
Handpicked Fabrics: Soft, durable textiles, including premium linens, cottons, velvets, and wools chosen to reflect your personal style.
Sustainable Alternatives: I welcome all traditional and modern upholstery projects, and I love working with clients to substitute standard synthetic foams with resilient natural latex, organic coir, and pure British wool where possible.
Low-Impact Finishes: I carefully select eco-friendly wood coatings, low-VOC glues, and non-toxic treatments to protect your health and the environment.
Balancing Tradition with Sustainability
The Vintage Sourcing &
Restoration Service
Finding the perfect piece of furniture for your home shouldn’t feel overwhelming. If you love the character of vintage or antique seating but don't know where to look, I provide a complete, hands-on sourcing and design service.
Together, we can hunt down a hidden treasure and completely transform it into a stunning, one-of-a-kind piece tailored precisely to your style, dimensions, and wellness values.
How the Sourcing Service Works :
1. The Design Brief & Hunt
Tell me what you are looking for—whether it’s a mid-century cocktail chair, a classic wingback, or a traditional nursery rocking chair frame. I will actively scour antique fairs, specialised vintage markets, and trusted trade networks across Cornwall to find the perfect framework.
2. Structural Assessment
Before any money changes hands, I verify the structural integrity of the frame. I check the joints, the timber quality, and the mechanical stability to ensure your piece is structurally sound and built to last another lifetime.
3. The Sustainable Rebuild
Once we secure the frame, it enters the Helston workshop. We strip it completely to the bare wood and rebuild it from scratch—giving you the option to replace old synthetic fillings with clean, breathable British wool and natural latex.
