![]() Art Deco Club Chairs had coil-sprung backs, loose cushions, and seat platforms, and are quite complicated to reupholster. ![]() Before the invention of perforated natural latex foam rubber in the early 1950’s, most contemporary upholstery padding consisted of a platform of coil springs tied together, with horsehair, Spanish moss, coconut matting, and cotton padding. When hand-stitched labor is required to reupholster the chair, the longer life of the more costly natural latex foam rubber becomes more sensible. In the 1960’s manufacturers developed inexpensive synthetic foam rubbers, with expected lives of 2 -20 years. Natural Latex Foam Rubber could last for 50 years or more. It replaced coil springs and horsehair and cotton padding, and could be applied in very thin supportive and resilient layers, to attain innovative designs that could not have been done with traditional upholstery techniques. Although invented decades before, natural latex foam rubber was not usable until perforated for the flow of air, carrying away perspiration. Natural Latex Foam Rubber, and the development of Modern Furniture Designs Another innovation of furniture reupholstering was the invention of perforated natural latex foam rubber. Due to the limited life of foam rubber, these rarely have original foam rubber padding, and if they do, the padding is now hard and lumpy, and in need of reupholstery. The Pierre Paulin Chairs were mostly introduced in the 1960's, and were upholstered primarily with latex foam rubber. Saddle stitching is a decorative stitching incorporated mostly in leather upholstery, with two or three lines of parallel stitches around seam, that requires superb alignment skills by the reupholsterer, and special double needle machines, for fine reupholstery work The Pierre Paulin Ribbon Chair Requires superb stitching, especially if highly flexible original fabric is not used to recover the chair. Good craftsmanship is apparent in hand-stitched leather or fabric sewing, by the tight and even stitching, and lack of creases or wrinkles. The quality of the upholstery work shows in every stitch. Machine sewing could not be used in these pieces. ![]() Hand-Stitching, Saddle-Stitching, and Simplification of Formįurniture Design incorporated simplification of form and framing, and often required hand-stitched fabric or leather in better quality pieces.
