Some of my customers have the most daring, eclectic, bold and vibrant tastes. Were it not for the fact this beast of a #Casamente #sofa was so super heavy to lift (and process on the bench) due to its south African hardwood Frame, I would have completely enjoyed this labour of love. The level of detailing involved was truly something of an experience in and of itself, to which end I give my heartfelt thanks to those lovely beings @nicolakilleentextiles for all their expertise and assistance in custom dying the outside arm panels, as well as the metres and metres of thick piping cord used to create the mattress stitching detail throughout the sofa, which by the way I deliberately stitched in a manor to make it look handmade.
I know the styling is not to everyone’s taste and that’s ok, I didn’t do it for you anyways
My heartfelt thanks to Vicky @the_upholstery_cabin for coming over to help me with the finishing touches.
