From Worn to Reborn

This mahogany tub chair is a beauty, but it wasn’t always so gorgeous. Just a few months ago it was old and tattered with ripped leather and a scratched wood frame.

This wooden frame was beat up–lots of cracks and scratches. We stripped the wood and then had to decide whether to stain it or leave it natural to show off the true color of the grain.

We decided to keep a natural finish highlighting the original craftsmanship and imperfections which are quite beautiful.

The leather is a cow hide from District Leathers in pacific blue.

We’re really proud of this one. Returned to its original glory, the piece’s recent disrepair lurks just beneath the surface, making the song it sings more resplendent.
