Restoring a Louis XV Chair | Using Traditional Upholstery Techniques

I restored a classic Louis XV chair using traditional upholstery techniques. This project took about 50 hours to complete. I learned these methods last year during my training at Belgium’s finest upholstery school. By using traditional materials, the chair is built to last for at least another 100 years. Do you think all the effort was worth it? Let me know what you think!
