Custom modern WingBack
This Suí commission for Scott included sourcing and saving, a tired, but sturdy wingback from landfill.
With the help of the team at Country Fabrics, he chose 'Bongo', a rich and textured speckled recycled wool blend from Casamance for his fabric which gives it a contemporary tweed finish.
The early morning Perthshire light set it off a treat and has got us thinking about what interesting upholstery pieces we could do for garden furniture…
“We love preserving heirlooms, but sometimes it's about creating new ones from unloved furniture.
Struan can often be seen adorning a tailored waistcoat and pocket watch and going by the cut of his jib, we can see him appreciating this Suí commissioned wingback in a few decades time.”
