Photographed on arrival to workshop. All awaiting re-gluing, cleaning, re-polishing over the original polish, then building a soft wax finish. Choosing the material for reupholstering is always enjoyable. Looking forward to getting these chairs ready for the showroom. Photographed along side a George III English mahogany tea-table, a Martin Tighe painting from his ‘Picnic at Hanging Rock’ series. An unusually large Masons mug and rare Masons green pattern bowl (sold today)
