Book Reviews of The Complete Upholsterer: A Pratical Guide to Upholstering Traditional Furniture
Book Review: A MUST HAVE
Summary: 5 Stars
I teach traditional upholstery restoration in NYC and always recommend to my students that they have this book as a resource. It is a wonderful reference -- very clear and concise -- with detailed illustrations. Thank goodness it is still in print, as traditional upholstery done with horse hair and hand stitching is rapidly losing its existence to a world of foam-based furniture constructed with glue and staples.
