It has been a while between posts. let’s just say the support and amount of projects, I have going, has kept me busy in the lead up to the holiday season. I thank all my clients for being such lovely people to deal with. For being patient & believing in me.
I had an opportunity this year to work on restoring a original barbers chair. I place it in the era between 1880 to 1920. It’s something I spent a lot of time & effort on my weekends striving to make it look like new & doing lots of research. even talking to restorers in the US. I’m 90% sure it’s a Koken. All though it may possibly be a malwa.
This chair is available and open to offers of genuine interest, feel free to make an offer of such vir PM. I am sure it will eventually find a good home. . A man cave! A perfect present for someone, possibly somewhere on display to be admired.
It was definitely something special finding old hair 100 years old, all the while wondering about its history in a barber’s somewhere. A place you would also get a bonus shoe shine for a threepence. Totally worth putting the effort into such a antique piece of history. I’m happy with how it came up. 🪑 💈 ✂️ 🪡
