Eclectic Chair

Boutique Upholstery and Beautiful Cushions 

Eclectic Chair is my upholstery studio and cushion boutique based in Chorlton, Manchester.

I specialise in upholstering vintage and new chairs to sell, and making cushions, using a variety of fabrics, from vintage Heals, to Designers Guild, to Orla Kiely's fun, bold and graphic fabrics and everything in between. I have a deep love of textiles and love to match the right fabric with the right chair.

Unfortunately I no longer upholster clients own furniture due to a shoulder injury.

Designer Fabrics

My favourite fabric houses are Designers Guild, Zoffany, Sanderson, Josef Frank, Thibault, Voyage and Manuel Canovas to name but a few, and I am always looking for something different, exciting and beautiful.

African Wax Fabric

I am a big fan of African wax fabric. I love it's vibrancy, colour and boldness. Wax prints are a type of nonverbal communication among African women, and thereby carry their messages out into the world.

Ikat Fabric from Uzbekistan

I love the brilliance in colour and extraordinary pattern designs of hand dyed Ikat fabrics. Carefully controlled amounts of colour merge with one another randomly creating subtle, slightly blurred patterns called clouds.

Heather is an amazing upholsterer, and has a great eye and sensitivity when restoring vintage pieces. She has reupholstered an antique chaise longue, a 1970s chair and an antique stool for me and they are perfect, I would recommend her to anyone.

Eclectic Chair has re-upholstered our sofa beautifully. It was done in double quick time (once we had finally decided upon the material), and I couldn't be more pleased. I will definitely be recommending Heather to anyone who needs any upholstery done and also to those who don't. (She did some fantastic bar stools as well!)

Amazing heather!!! They look perfect and I am so happy to have been able to keep the chair. The arms had gone beyond acceptable tatty!!! The arms are beautifully covered and back on. They are perfect.
