Emily Henderson's p.o.v.

Emily Henderson wrote to me about my chair!
(I, of course, wrote to her first...but HEY!)

In her opinion:

That's crazy. $600 is i'm sure amazing quality, but a really high price. It might depend on where you live. In LA, there are so many cheap upholstery places that do everything from shoddy to amazing work and you can bargain with them a lot. A wingback like that could cost me $450 at a really respectable big company, but at a small weird off the beaten path place in LA it would be $300. The foam, tufting and piping all cost so that is why wingbacks are more expensive. A slipper chair is a lot cheaper.

Hope this helps!
I would get quotes..
xo

So let's all take a little trip to LA, shall we?

I love Emily Henderson. I'd be willing to get cable just to watch her show.

  1. Oooh how exciting! Hope you find great luck with gettin' that bad boy redone. It's a very C.S. Lewis kind of chair :) I like.
