This is an example of a furniture restoration project of mine.
This beautiful, rustic little prayer chair came to me in a very sorry state via eBay. It must have been in a shed for years. There were cup rings on the top, woodworm holes in various parts and the rush seating was dusty and falling apart.
During restoration – wood had been stripped and all joints were re-glued
After restoration and re-rushing the seat

Lovely! Love this website. Your chairs look fab and it’s VERY easy to navigate your website. I’ll send a few more comments via personal email. I liked this prayer chair because it was very trad and very different to your other chairs, which were lovely too but all seemed to look the same. Cx
