Own a Piece of History – Restored With Pride
“Good design is sustainable design.”
– Hans J. Wegner
Every chair in our shop has been lovingly restored by David and Laurie Blake in our Weaving Truck, currently located in Calgary, Alberta, at our summer studio, and we'll return to the Vancouver area in November and remain there until the end of March, using the same FSC-certified materials we use for client projects across Canada.
These aren’t reproductions. They’re authentic mid-century treasures, saved from landfill, refinished, re-woven, and ready for your home today.
Prefer your own chair restored instead? We do that too – and 90 % of our shop buyers started by sending us photos of their own pieces first.
Have a chair you love, but it’s seen better days?
Text photos to 403-613-5801 — we’ll quote restoration (often cheaper than buying) in 24 hours.
