Northern Cape notes on furniture reupholstery
Kimberley has older homes in Belgravia, Herlear and the streets near the city centre, where Victorian armchairs, ball and claw dining chairs and stinkwood or imbuia pieces turn up for restoration. In Upington, Kuruman and the mining towns, families recover lounge suites, fit new foam to flattened seats and order headboards for new houses. On farms near Prieska and Calvinia, riempie chairs and old lounge suites are often driven in on a bakkie to the nearest workshop.
Upholsterers and suppliers in Northern Cape
Dust and dry heat are the first things to plan for when you want upholstery done in the Northern Cape. Fine red dust works into woven fabric, sun bleaches anything near a window and leather couches dry out and crack without conditioning. Kimberley holds Victorian houses in suburbs like Belgravia with old armchairs and dining sets worth restoring, while the iron ore and manganese towns of Kathu and Postmasburg send fleet bakkies and mine office chairs to motor trimmers. Upington serves grape farms along the Orange River, and Springbok and De Aar are long drives from the nearest big workshop. Fabric and foam often travel from Gauteng or Cape Town, so ask about courier time before you book a date.
