I went to Richard upon a friend’s recommendation. Boy, was she right! Richard’s show room is pretty dusty as are his fabric samples, but don’t let that put you off. Bring your piece, choose your fabric, and watch Richard figure out an estimate on a notepad. I gave Richard a channel backed, asymmetrical chair that I bought for $ 5 at the Alameda Flea Market thirty years ago. Since then, I’ve hauled around this mouse nest of a chair thinking that some day I’d get it re-stuffed and re-upholstered. I told Richard there was no hurry and I still got my chair back in less than three weeks. It is just gorgeous! He did a beautiful job on the channels, and for a very reasonable price. Not cheap, but reasonable. I highly recommend this very un-prepossessing business man and his work shop. I will be bringing him a recliner to re-upholster and a two tier claw footed table to refinish.
