What to know locally in Western Cape
Older homes in Observatory, Rondebosch, Wynberg and Durbanville hold stinkwood dining chairs, Morris chairs and wingbacks that suit full restoration, while Cape Dutch homesteads around Stellenbosch, Paarl and Tulbagh bring in riempie benches and yellowwood pieces. Newer estates in Somerset West and the northern suburbs ask for corner couches and headboards. In Mitchells Plain, Khayelitsha and Gugulethu, families recover lounge suites and fix sagging seats.
Western Cape: the homes, the climate and the workshops
Cape Dutch farmhouses, wine farm tasting rooms and Victorian cottages give the Western Cape a strong restoration tradition, with stinkwood and yellowwood chairs, riempie benches and old armchairs regularly rebuilt rather than replaced. Cape Town's upholsterers and motor trimmers work from Epping, Montague Gardens, Maitland and Ndabeni, with home workshops across the Cape Flats and fabric houses around Woodstock and Salt River. Wine estates in Stellenbosch, Paarl and Franschhoek recover lounge chairs, banquettes and outdoor cushions between seasons. Yachts and fishing boats at Hout Bay, Knysna and Hermanus need marine vinyl. Wet winters bring mould into closed holiday homes, while the summer sun and wind on the coast fade and wear patio fabric quickly.
The requests we see from Western Cape usually come from:
- Homeowners and tenants: a set of six or eight stained dining chairs recovered and reglued for family meals
- Restaurants, hotels, guesthouses and lodges: restaurant and guesthouse dining chairs recovered in wipeable fabric or faux leather
- Boats, caravans and 4x4s: the dining chairs in a game lodge, a holiday house or a yacht club dining room
