'Laurie and David restored the seats on 2 of these French Canadian beauties for me. Absolutely perfectly woven in a beautiful style in Danish Cord, fairly priced, with a quick turnaround too. I highly recommend their services as they travel and work across Canada, sharing their knowledge of this near-lost art and making their services readily and efficiently available to customers. Follow them on Instagram and/or Facebook, or view their website and get on their wait-list and restore that quality chair with the damaged seat you've been hanging onto. You will be thrilled you did! It was such a pleasure to meet you both. Many, many thanks!' Tara, Vancouver
