NOT SO EASY BUT STILL SO SATISFYING ! I really lo NOT SO EASY BUT STILL SO SATISFYING !

I really love doing this tiny video because it shows many (but not all) parts of the process of our hidden job. It looks so easy when i look back at it but this sofa is quite a piece to upholster.

This is 40 hours-ish of work and this was my last big upholstery project of 2022.

I'm getting used to this big boys. I felt in love with its 60's italian vibe the first time we met even i did not know how to start to putt its arms off 😅.

I've changed the foam of the seat cushion and added some extra padding on "ears" and arms to make him good as new.

I also did the covering with 15 meters of a gorgeous velvet fabric by @zinctextile
and 20 meters of simple corde piping by @passementeries_idf.

This sofa represent one of the ultimate goal for upholsteters like me: this is where design meet craftmanship to create unique pieces of furniture, pure luxury. ✨

• IT'S ALL ABOUT APPRENTICESHIP, AND MASTERS • • IT'S ALL ABOUT APPRENTICESHIP, AND MASTERS •

This is my most asked question of all times so i put it here, i guess it may help.

So I would not be here without APPRENTICESHIP!

My upholstery training was a very "classical one"  and i was lucky enought to start with the AOCDTF (Compagnon du Devoir).

First 2 years of apprenticeship:
 @les_compagnons with Nicolas Mauclert (@nmauclert ) and mister Alain Sartre workshop in the south of France. 
Then school time at @campusdesmetiers37 with Laurent Janin while working in " Passion Décors" at Châtillon en Michaille near Geneva.

You are numerous asking about upholstery schools around the world but i'm french and i know very few about that !

• TELL ME MORE ABOUT YOU HERE •

Feel free to comment and share your own journey if you have some info or advices to give to the new trainees, i'm sure it can be usefull.

 Unfortunatly everywhere this is harder than ever to find some serious upholstery training so please share them. 🥲

Have a nice week ♥️

• LOUIS XVI STYLE ARMCHAIR PART 1/2 • This Lo • LOUIS XVI STYLE ARMCHAIR PART 1/2 •

This Louis 16 style armchair is actualy a for hands job because my new trainee started the upholstery.
It is always a pleasure to teach and show our art, even more when you guys show so much enthousiasm and passion.

This is the final stages of a traditionnal upholstery.

 After stitching the edges we ad horsehair to give the padding its final touch before the calico.

I know some of you will think i'm crazy to work with tacks in mouth but this is so helpfull doing traditional! That is the way my masters taught me and i could not do otherwise.

This chair is now ready for being covered so the covering process is coming soon! ✨

Today  Emmanuelle was covering this gorgeous Napoleon III antique armchair in upholstery class. 

This is hard work but she's training for long and i know she's really able to do it. 💪

She's feeling a little discouraged right now because this process takes a lot of time ... even within a fabric with this kind of pattern but I know she will love it SO MUCH after it's done.

Let's show her some ♥️!

The velvet fabric is designed by Emma Shipley (@emmajshipley) and made by @clarkeandclarke.

This old Louis XIII style chairs get a brand new look covered with a nice yellow velvet by casamance.

They were fully upholstered before, with foam and modern techniques this time. 

Cutting the fabric accross the arm can be tricky on this type of chairs but everything went as expected. 

This yellow mustard color velvet was stunning near the deep blue wall of my clients, i hope i'd found the picture so i can show you. 😅

Have a nice day everyone. ✨

Yess this is today's chair and yess i feel hyperproductive this times. This little christmas holiday filled with family and chocolate suit me well 😂

Let's be honest after doing so much heavy complex upholstery covering a simple chair like this was a simple task : SO SATISFYING ! 🤓

This black wood armchair is now beautiful as new with this blue EASY CLEAN fabric by one of my favorite german fabric supplier @zimmerandrohde.

I don't 'know much about this chair but for sure the frame is not an old one. Also t it comes from @misendemeure . ✨

We add a bespoke cushion so it become even more comfortable. We choose an easy clean blue fabric so it match perfectly the house + no worry about kids and stains.

TRUE VINTAGE TRUE BEAUTY •

What a pleasure to restore this little vintage chair by french designer Pierre Guariche for @val.design ✨.

Even when you do it on your "holidays time" because the kids get a bad flu and you kept them home a WHOLE week before Christmas Holidays 😅 
Plus i really love to work alone in this empty "closed" workshop where it's only me and the projects. 

The fabric is from @elitisfrance, its texture and nude pink with black in it is gorgeous ! 🖤

Swip to see how it was before 👉

You may have a ♥️ attack checking is price but this is one of the craziest wool fabric i saw this year.

 This "bouclé" fabric (is it what you say in english ? or please tell me! 😅) WE call it " bouclette" in France is pure luxury.

Louison by Pierre Frey is one of my favorite so far look at this texture !

Here we made a gorgeous vintage 60's little chair. A chair covering very well made by the hand of Théa for her final. 👏 Can you imagine learning on that type of fabric? 😍🔨
