Furniture reupholstery in Free State: local notes
Bloemfontein suburbs such as Westdene, Willows and Universitas have older homes with solid wooden lounge suites and wingbacks, while Langenhoven Park and the newer estates ask for corner units and headboards. Farms around Bethlehem, Ficksburg and Ladybrand bring in riempie chairs and yellowwood pieces for restoration. In Botshabelo, Thaba Nchu and the townships of Mangaung, families recover lounge suites and replace flat foam before family events.
Free State: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Farm kitchens across the platteland still hold yellowwood tables, riempie chairs and big lounge suites that have outlived several sets of covers, and much of the furniture work in the Free State is about keeping those pieces in use. Bloemfontein is the main centre, with upholsterers and motor trimmers in its industrial areas and in Mangaung, while Welkom, Kroonstad, Bethlehem and Sasolburg each have workshops for their own districts. Guesthouses in Clarens and the eastern Free State recover headboards and fireside chairs, and trucks and bakkies on the N1 and N3 keep trimmers busy. Bitter winters, frost and dry wind harden leather and vinyl, so ask about conditioning and care when you collect a piece.
