Please don't feel it is somehow inappropriate to explain about your pieces. Actually it was very good of you to explain the reasons behind this refurb. I think the work was brilliant. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much!😀❤️
Agree. Give us the history 😀
Just beautiful! I’m so sorry for your client’s loss. I hope this helps heal the grief. Well done, and I’m definitely going back to find the previous work. 💖
😀❤️
David. If only the client and his family watch this video it will have been worth doing it, as they can see the love and care you have put into bringing this chair back to life in memory of his brother. And it can also be used to show to younger members of the family to explain where these chairs fit into their family’s history. Another fantastic restoration xx
Thanks mum ❤️❤️❤️
Wow David..Im sure the client will be happy! And hey, we love it when you come on to explain a piece or whatever. .just to gab with us is nice too! Cuddles and more cuddles to Daisy! Boy does she know where her corks are! Cant fool her..lol
Thanks so much Kim. 😀🐶❤️❤️
Thank you for letting us into your life and of your clients. Doing so makes me appreciate the love and intention of your labors. ❤
I look forward to each and every project you take on.
Thank you so much, so pleased you enjoyed it 😀😀
Thanks David - I’m genuinely touched by your kind opening words. Best regards.
It was my pleasure and honour to be the one to do this for you. 😀
A fitting way for your customer to honor his family, and by extension, for you to serve them all.
It’s an honour to do these pieces 😀
Absolutely beautiful. If ever a piece deserved to be restored it's this piece, not only for its sentimental value, but for its decorative value as well. A pair of these chairs at a small table or against a wall will look just lovely. You did a fantastic job all the way round, but particularly with the brass inlay.
Thanks so much for your lovely comment 😀❤️
Fantastic and I am sure he will cherish it even more now. 💕🐾🐶
Thanks so much, he was really pleased with it 😀🐶❤️
This is not a chair,this is a royal throne!
Hahaha Thankyou 😀😀
Personally, I like hearing the back story of a piece that is getting restored. It's such a sad story. My prayers are going out to your customer and family. You did a great job bringing this beauty back to its previous beauty. God bless you and your family!
😀❤️❤️
That poor man! Thank you for sharing this story and making this restoration even more special!
😀❤️
David Daisy is so adorable. Sorry to hear about your clients brother. You did a amazing job it's absolutely gorgeous. Well done in the brothers memory.
Thanks Tammy 😀🐶❤️
This is a beautiful chair with absolutely lovely upholstery. It is wonderful that it stays within the family. Would love to see it with its twin.
Thank you so much!😀😀
Patience, skill, imagination, artistic flair. The chair is perfect but I would not expect anything less from you. I hope the joy he has when you deliver the chair will go at least a little way to alleviate his grief. On a lighter note, please thank the gorgeous Daisy for her contribution. As always she made me smile. I wish you and your family a 2024 filled with love, joy and laughter. Oh, and many more vlogs!!!!!!!!!!!
Hi Pamela and thanks once again for your very kind comments. Both Daisy and I really appreciate your continued support 😀🐶❤️❤️
Simply beautiful!! The best part of this restoration is the gift of memories of his brother. Thank you for sharing his story.
Thanks Marilyn 😀
He has a beautiful reminder of his grandmother and his brother. I am so in love with that fabric! I have a little dog that insists on having treats tossed for him to go get. It's a new thing he started this year.
Dogs are the best, endless fun 😀🐶❤️
Loved the first one, also this one, That upholstery fabric is beautiful and doesn't weigh down the design.
Thank you! 😊
Thank you for the video of a very special restoration of a family heirloom . Beautiful job as always of keeping grandparents and brother together in the restoration of the chair.
Glad you enjoyed it😀😀
What a beautiful restoration. I'm quite sure your client will forever cherish this special chair.
Thanks Karen 😀😀
How what a sad story about your clients brother. My heart breaks for his loss 😢. How beautifully you’ve restore his brothers chair. Very nice. Hello to your sweet lil Daisy ❤️🇺🇸
I appreciate that thanks 😀🐶❤️❤️
💜💜💜I love those chairs. Especially the ebony bit in the center of the back. Daisy is my favorite pup on You Tube. Thank you for sharing this David!
Thanks Anita, Daisy says hi 😀🐶❤️
Very nice job fashioning the oversized brass inlay. You did a wonderful restoration for your client. Hope it helps in healing the loss of his brother.
Thanks 😀
It's very sad how he ended up with both chairs 😭 but at least it's someone that will take care of them. 😢💔 Your restoration is stunning 🥰 It's great that he had you he could trust with them. ❤️ Another job well done!
It was an honour for me to work on it 😀❤️
Thank you for taking the time to share the story about this chair. So sad, but so heartwarming that the owner will now have both pieces to honor his grandmother and brother. They both turned out beautiful. You did an awesome job, as always.
Thanks Karen 😀
The chair looks beautiful and your brass inlay is perfection!
Thank you so much!😀😀
I appreciated your explanation at the beginning of this video. The design of the chair didn’t look familiar until you were bending and installing the brass inlay.
Your makeshift anvil worked pretty well. I never would have thought of that solution.
Thanks Shirley 😀😀
So pleased that the pair are together again.❤
😀❤️
I really like the back stories to furniture.
Thanks 😀
Your makeshift anvil is probably the most creative work around I’ve seen in years.
I’ll invest in a proper Anvil one of these days 😂😂👍
The upholstery is perfect!! Beautiful!!
Thank you 😀😀
Looking forward to this! Just a few hours to wait.
It's a neat chair. I like old furniture. My grandmother had a bunch of old pieces of furniture of all types in her house. This story brings back some memories.
Glad you liked it 😀😀
Very beautiful, David. Your customer will be very grateful to have this chair to remember his family members.
Thanks so much 😀😀
Incredibly gorgeous chair.
😀❤️
Lovely chair with all your care and expertise. You and the owner have honored a memory.
Thanks 😀😀
Great video!
Sorry for the loss of your customer's brother. It'd be nice to see a picture of both chairs together - you really did a great job to honour the brother and the grandmother❤
Thanks, I actually been sent a pic of the charts together in his home which I’ll put on my UA-cam community page 😀❤️
Gorgeous. I trust this will bring back good memories to your client of his Grandmother and brother.
I hope so too!😀❤️
Sad story, beautiful restoration for a lasting memory…👍🏻
Many thanks😀
Beautiful restoration, hopefully your client has many happy memories, and the chair will help to remember them, ❤️
😀❤️
I remember the first piece you did and I commented as to why you didn’t paint those areas all the way and you kindly explained that it was brass not paint. This piece turned out just as beautiful as the first. Great job
Thanks so much 😀😀
Thanks for the explanation. I thought the chair looked familiar. Very sad how your client acquired it. It will mean a lot to him and his family now for many more years to come. Well done you. 😊
😀❤️
I loved your beginning explanation! I hope you do them more often. It’s more of a personable experience than just hearing a voice over, even though I like your voice overs. Always a pleasure to watch.
Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it 😀
Please don't apologise for explaining. Personally, I like hearing the history of the piece! Another brilliant transformation 😊
Thank you so much!😀
Well Done. You've brought a rather splendid Regency/William IV chair back to life.
Thanks very much 😀😀
I got here late. Sorry for your clients loss. I can not wait to see the great job you will do on these matching chairs
😀❤️
Truly a splendid chair! 😍Congratulations, especially for the brass profile: a very professional job! 🥇🥇🥇The fabric you chose is perfect too! The customer will be very happy. I wish you a wonderful 2024, to you and all your loved ones! 🥂🍾As always, a caress to Daisy!❤️
Thanks Anna, happy new year to you 😀🐶❤️
First class piece of work and a nice bit of improvisation with the brass.
Just to add, you can't have enough Daisy time. She's a lovely dog.
😀🐶❤️
I love that he now has both pieces to love and remember his brother and grandmother whenever he sees or uses them.
😀❤️
No explanation is needed, however, I thought the chair looked familar. Im sorry for the mans loss and can totally understand why he wanted this one redone to match, in honour of his brother and their grandmother. Youve done their grandmother proud. I think shed love how you restored her chairs. They are lovely!❤🪑
Thanks so much 😀❤️
Lovely chair, I love that upholstery.
Thanks very much 😀
Beautiful work. I'd forgotten how much I also loved that fabric, great choice for that chair. .
Thank you! 😊
I remember the first one. Sad he had to get the second one the way he did. I love getting back stories! Thank you for sharing! This one will be beautiful also.
Thanks so much 😀😀
A beautiful restoration, David. And hello sweet Daisy❤❤❤❤
😊 thank you🐶❤️
What you did with the brass was impressive. Well done!
Thanks 😀😀
Beautiful! The brass inlay is amazing!!
Thank you! Cheers!😀😀
That’s a beautiful restoration showing your skill and knowledge….and patience. Your client is lucky to have found you.
And thanks for including sassy Daisy for her fans-like me. 🥰
BTW- this is my favorite restoration channel!!
You are very kind to say that considering the other channels out there. Thanks so much, I really appreciate it 😀🐶❤️❤️
That turned out gorgeous! I am glad you explained the reason and prayers for your customer's family. Still love Daisy!
Thank you so much!😀🐶❤️
It's such a beautiful chair! You did a great job, with so much respect and honor to the story of this piece. I'm sure the owner must be happy with the final results.
Thank you so much!😀
Would never tire of watching you restoration beautiful old furniture!!
Thanks so much Andrea 😀😀
Beautiful results. Sorry for your customer’s loss. Thank you for sharing.😊
Thanks 😀❤️
You are a lovely sentimental sweetheart. Kindness goes along way.
You found me out, I am quite a softy 😂😂
Upholster or not the corners are perfect. Beautiful job on the chair. I love your creative way of bending the brass pieces. I learn something from you every time I watch a video.
Thanks very much Patricia 😀😀
Condolences to your client. This will be such a heartwarming reminder of their brother. Maybe imagining him sitting in it. It's a beautiful chair and you have done it justice. Great work. Hello from the south of France.
It is a sad story but hopefully he will remember his brother when he sits on the chair 😀❤️
I am so impressed with how you did that brass inlay. I remember the fabric but not the previous chair. Excellent job, as usual.
Thank you very much!😀
Loved your introduction to the video, and the restoration work was excellent as always! Cheers!
Thanks Laura 😀😀
Thank you for sharing your baby. Our animals are more family than pets. Well loved
She’s the light of our lives 🐶❤️
GENIUS work on that brass inlay!
Very kind, Thankyou 😀
Lovely restoration as always, as love having some cute Daisy Time as well
Thank you! 😊🐶❤️
The metal inlay came out perfectly! Beautifu job, as usual.
Thank you so much 😀
Gorgeous result. I am so impressed with the way you fixed the missing brass piece.
Thanks very much 😀😀
Beautiful fabric! Wonderful restoration! Plus a lovely, if sad, story. Thank you!❤
Thank you! 😊
So sorry for your customer about this chair. You restored it so beautifully, its glowing😊😊😊 thank you for sharing
Thank you! 🤗
Gorgeous chair, excellent restoration! Love the fabric for the seat. Elegant!
Thanks so much!😀
I can't even tell that the brass piece was missing. Beautiful job.
That’s the best compliment, thanks 😀😀
I've been feeling the post-holiday blues today, but this video brought a smile to my face. Thank you!
That’s great to hear, glad you enjoyed it 😀🐶❤️
Oh my goodness David, what a gorgeous job! I'm sure your client will be extremely happy with this stunning chair. You and Jay are quite good at upholstery! Gorgeous job! Daisy is the sweetest girl! 😊❤
Thanks so much!😀🐶❤️
An absolutely stunning result. Another Mayfield resto to be awed by.
You’re very kind, thanks 😀😀
I love that dog
🐶❤️❤️
Looks gorgeous 😮. That material is really beautiful 😊❤👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks so much 😊
Sorry to hear about the passing. Very sad, the chair came out as beautiful as the first one. I did see that video and remember how gorgeous it turned out. Keep plugging away and this too shall pass. 👍
😀👍👍
A very sad back story 😭. For this man to entrust you with 5 pieces of his furniture for you to restore is a testament of your skills as a Master Crafter. You did a beautiful job, especially in regards to the brass inlay. Another beautiful project.
The only furniture restorers I watch are you and Jay, and I was brought to your channel through Jay's when you did the collab. It would be great if you did another collab together but this time with the exact same piece of furniture, for example the exact same chest of drawers or bedside tables and see what each of you come up with. No conferring either 🤣.
Thanks so much. Jay is a good friend of mine since we did the Collab. We’re actually part of another challenge coming out on the 28th April. We’re taking a completely trashed piece of furniture and restoring it 😀❤️
Angie at Transcend furniture in Canada is worth a look too.
Angie is cool and her stuff is amazing. We’re friends on our WhatsApp group 😀❤️
Simply a beautiful restoration, I'm sure your customer will be delighted with this especially due to the circumstances
Cheers Tom, he loved it 😀👍
Very nice job with inlay and everything!!!!
Thanks 😀
I do remember that fabric from a chair project you did previously; I think you also used it on a sewing cabinet/chest. This client must have an exquisite home with these pieces. You've got a great eye for centering and placing the pattern on the chair, too. I wondered how you'd curve the brass inlay, but never thought about heating it. The sound of rain in your workshop is so soothing. In my state of Oklahoma, we have either rain with tornadoes and hail, or just full drought. I envy you the steady rains that the UK seems to have. Daisy made her wiggly appearance with a cork, which makes all of us smile. She's a dear doggie. Thanks for another visit to your shop, and cheers from Oklahoma!!!
Hi and thanks once again for your lovely comment. I really appreciate your continued support 😀🐶❤️
Beautiful chair and a lovely choice of fabric too.
Thank you! 😊
A very satisfying watch David. Excellent result, hope your client was happy with it.
Thanks Colin 😀😀
Stunning! So sad that the customer acquired the piece through tragedy, but your restoration will surely be a comfort to him.
😃❤️
... what a sad story about the brother if your customer - every one can understand that immediately. Every one who already lost a brother (like I did) can even share the sad feelings.
As always your work is excellent and the result is really wonderful. I especially enjoyed the brass work on the oiece - that turned out really nice then.
Happy new year, take care and be well and please crawl Daisy behind her ears from me - greetings from Germany from the silver fox, David 😉🦊
Thanks David and apologies for the delayed response. I'm getting so many comments its hard to keep up. Happy belated New Year to you too 😃👍👍
Didn't recognize the chair until I saw the fabric! 😅
😀❤️
Oh yeah fantastic job Dave ,that brass was perfect I couldn’t fault your upholstery looks like a real pro has done it I think you underestimate yourself, once again mate, great job.
Thanks 👍😀
Beautiful. I love how the darkness of the chair highlights the brass.
Thanks 😀😀
I’d love to hear more about the history of the pieces you restore, that is, when was it built, what era, and so on. I live in the States where nothing is more than 50 years old, lol. Amazes me when there’s a piece of furniture that is 100 or 150 years old.
Thanks Lisa, I’ll keep that in mind for future videos 😀😀
Beautiful, your customer will be pleased with what you’ve done to match the other chair. Well done 👏
😃❤️
Beautifully done as ever.
❤️
Just splendid ! So sorry for your client 😢 Thanks for your videos ❤
Thank you so much!😀😀
They will be lovely as a pair in your client’s home. A nice remembrance. Carol from California
Thank you so much!😀😀
Beautiful work, as always. While the background that led to this restoration is, indeed, very sad, I'm certain that your customer now can cherish the memory of his brother in a much more positive way. You are a wonderful restorer, and I suppose, one of the prerequisites for doing this kind of work, apart from a great love for it, is a good amount of ingenuity when it comes to solving New situations, such as with bending those brass inlays ... and a willingness to possibly suffer burns on your fingers 😉
Wishing you all the best for 2024, great health and happiness and continued success in everything you endeavor! Greetings from Germany ❤ Oh, and Daisy? She's hilarious! Such a great dog!
What a really nice comment, thank you so much, I really appreciate it 😀🐶❤️
Beautiful (challenging) restoration. I also love the upholstery material - gorgeous. 🥰
Thanks so much! 😊
Absolutely stunning! Just WOW!
Thank you so much!😀🐶
