Offers for the upholstery of two Thonet chairs from upholsterers and furniture stores in and around Oldenburg.

Difficulties arise from the large pattern, the new fabric and the sewn through seams in the seat and backrest.

For price comparison, the quotes for upholstery in Oldenburg range from €120 to €345 per chair. The cheapest was late, but otherwise fine.

“Unseen, just providing a flat rate, my husband would rate this as about 5 hours work / chair, because you can no longer use the fabric of the chair as a pattern.

About €40,  Material / chair, that adds up to 250 € / chair.

To give further details, it would be good if my husband could see the chairs.

Whether the material is sufficient, that is of course depends on the allowance as the pattern is very large-.

Andrea Retzlaff  Winkler”

Request

For two Thonet chairs I have found left over fabric. I would like to refurbish these chairs (picture attached). What would the upholstering, refurbishing with stitch through seams in the seat and backrest cost?

Result

Markus Kall’s offer was not just 30 € cheaper per seat, Mr. Kall was the only upholsterer listed here who offered to pick up the chairs and to bring them once finished. Even though he has not embroidered the seam, I am satisfied with the quality of his work and the new foam in the seat. The price-performance ratio of Mr Kall’s work is very good.

Disadvantages

Mr. Kall does not use e-mail, making communication difficult. Through a death in his family, the work was delayed week by week and unfortunately,  the delays were not always announced.

 

Conclusion

Despite the delay, I would appoint Mr Kall again.
