And it’s critically important that you ensure a professional and expert restoration – where do you start?

The Sulfaro team are true artisans. With valuable period and antique furniture, it’s imperative that a proper assessment of each individual piece in made. Framing, springs, webbing, cushioning are all vitally important to ensure comfort and durability.

Every now and again it happens. One of our customers has asked us to recover and restore one of our lounge suites. In this case it was purchased from Sulfaro in 1990. The framing and springs are still in good condition but as part of our service in restoration we check all aspect of the furniture’s upholstery. In a few weeks time, the sofa and armchairs will be returned re-covered in selected fabrics with foam, cushioning and fabrics as new and the pieces are well on their way to being genuine classics, reupholstered and refreshed.

This is possible because at Sulfaro our furniture is handcrafted and constructed to the highest quality standards. A Sulfaro sofa, armchair, or occasional chair is built to last you a lifetime – and our team of artisans, craftsmen and seamstresses are here to make sure it does. As can be seen even up to 30 years later!

Sometimes it’s just time to recover your Sulfaro furniture. A lady returned this week to arrange the re-covering of her lounge suite she purchased 12 years ago. Sales Manager and Design consultant Amelia Sulfaro demonstrated a range of fabric suitable to suit both the customer’s budget and taste.

A classic Sulfaro sofa or lounge setting is timeless, it simply never goes out of fashion. You can view our range of Traditional/European and Classic/Hamptons here . Sumptuous, luxurious and supremely comfortable, handcrafted with real quality and finesse.

After restoration
