Antique, Heirloom & Specialty Furniture Restoration
Antique chairs, heirloom pieces and one-of-a-kind furniture need more care than a standard reupholstery job. UpholsteryLink routes specialty restoration requests to approved professionals, and each piece is reviewed individually.

Antique chairs and settees

One-of-a-kind and unusual items
Pieces that don’t fit a standard category — reviewed from photos first.
Before you request
- Will the piece be reviewed first?
- Yes. Specialty work is reviewed individually from photos and your description before a vendor takes it on.
- Can the original style be kept?
- That’s usually the aim. Say what matters most — the original fabric pattern, the tufting, the period look — and include photos.
- What about the wood frame or finish?
- Upholstery work focuses on the seat, back and covering. Mention any frame or finish concerns; whether they can be addressed depends on the vendor.
- What helps most?
- Photos from several angles, close-ups of wear and any labels, and a short history of the piece if you know it.
