Working on a table/chairs set for the first time in a long time!
This Jacobean Revival set was made by Angelus Furniture Manufacturing Company in Los Angeles, CA in May 1927. I️ couldn’t bring myself to paint it, so I just restored the finish with Wise Owl Furniture Salve and reupholstered the seat.
The chair shown is now my desk chair, but the remaining four chairs and table will become our dining set. I️ don’t plan to paint those either, but I’ll reupholster with different fabric.
The coolest part about this project? Check out the upholstery before’s and after’s - I️ think the blue floral was probably installed in the 1940s, and the maroon appears to be the original fabric from 1927.
