Before and after

The LC1 “Armchair with a Tilting Back” (“Siège à Dossier Basculant“) became an icon of 20th century design — made of materials that were at the time considered revolutionary in a domestic setting.

Dario restored it faithfully to the original design.

The “Fox” chair, designed by Rolf Hesland captured our hearts.

The geometric lines of the chair, softened by the gentle curves and rounded corners, give it a restful, inviting air. A real beauty.

Even a chair that seems to be on its last legs can be reborn as a comfortable sitting-room chair after being restored.

Aged leather can be beautiful.

But the clean and timeless lines of chrome need the new orange leather to restore the chair’s professional air.

This side chair — designed by Jens Risom in 1943 — is beautifully harmonious. The proportions are perfect.

It was unusable when it arrived, because of a previous restoration that was done badly. Dario restored it perfectly.

Selected by Charlotte Perriand for the French ski resort Les Arcs in 1970, these chairs are adorable.

After a faithful restoration they’re ready to impart Perriand’s fun to a whole new generation.

These beautiful Bruno Mathsson chairs were brought to us in a sorry state. They’d been badly restored in the past, with poor-quality leather

Dario restored them to their former beauty.
