Glasshouse Girl Chairs
And the Glasshouse Girl range of chairs that work brilliantly with them:
Black Velvet Bristow Easy Chairs
These lovely Original Bristow Easy Chairs were originally owned by a couple who had them from new when they were first married back in the 1960s. They are preloved and have been a part of a wonderful life. They have now been reloved by Glasshouse Girl and are ready to be a start a new story as a part of a your home. I have two chairs available and the price quoted is per chair.
Each chair has been completely stripped down to the bare wood and painted in a black acrylic. The interior foams have been replaced to bring them up to modern fire safety standards.
The upholstery fabric is a black textured soft velvet with a geometric hexagons and triangles design from Studio G (part of Clarke and Clarke). The Lustro Loreto design in Jet ticks both the modern and retro styles simultaneously!
Brass / gold 13mm upholstery stud strips have been added to back for an added pop of style and luxury,
With a sprung base and seat back underneath an thick incredibly comfortable foam pad, these Easy chairs are the perfect mid-century feature piece for you to melt into after a long day.
Dimensions: 90cm high x 52.5cm wide x 49cm deep

Rainbow Stickback Chair
Whether you like The Wizard of Oz, support gay Pride or simply love a rainbow, the Glasshouse Girl Rainbow Chair will bring a splash of colour to your dining room, hallway or home office! Colour has been proven to boost your mood and this chair delivers just that!
The chair was completely disassembled, sanded back to the bare wood and undercoated. Each of the stick was painted in a different rainbow colour and the main frame of the chair painted in a matt black acrylic paint.
Once reassembled the chair was topcoated with a satin varnish to keep if looking beautiful and make it hard wearing.
This chair design can also be ordered in sets of 2, 4, 6 or 8 with a black or white frame. Custom coloured sticks and frames are also available on request (a fuschia frame and different pink shade sticks for instance!). Just challenge Glasshouse Girl to come up with the perfect solution just for you!
Ercol Swan Highback Dining Chairs
This gorgeous vintage set of classic Ercol swan dining chairs feature a highback hoop back.
Originally they had a flaking dark brown traditional finish but Glasshouse Girl has bought them bang up to date by stripping the seat pad back to bare wood and refinishing the back/base in black acrylic paint.
Some of the original stain has been left on the seat pad giving it a stylish dark wood grain finish that perfectly compliments the black.
The chairs have been finished with oil making them a smooth velvety to the touch.
Dimensions: 960mm high / 420mm to top of seat pad.
These chairs and similar chairs are painted to order within 2-4 weeks, please contact me with any special requests or if you would like your own chairs painted in this style.
‘Off My Rocker’ Silver Modern Rocking Chair
Rocking chairs don't have to be old fashioned. This solid wood framed modern rocking chair proves that with its Elton John makeover!
The frame is made from solid wood and has been stripped back to the bare wood so you can appreciate its full beauty.
The cushion pads have been replaced with 100mm deep foam and reupholstered in a super soft silver leatherette making it a really comfortable. A fire retardant interliner ensures this piece meets all UK safety standards.
This luxurious piece is one that you'll just love to curl up in at the end of a hard day... and probably argue with your family about whose turn it is to go 'off your rocker'!

‘Age of Aquarius’ G-Plan Dining Chairs
These fabulous 1970s G-Plan chairs are solid wood and have been bought bang up to date with a custom aged metal finish. In doing this, you get an industrial space age chic but with all the warmth of wood.
Each chair has been completely stripped down to the bare wood and the grain exposed before being coated in a bright silver chrome acrylic paint. To bring out the grain and history of each piece, I have then applied a custom black glaze before finishing with two layers of satin varnish to protect.
The seat pads have been reupholstered. The interior foams have been replaced to bring them up to modern fire safety standards whilst improving their comfort. The upholstery fabric is a black textured soft velvet with a geometric hexagons and triangles design from Studio G (part of Clarke and Clarke). The Lustro Loreto design in Jet ticks both the modern and retro styles simultaneously!
These 'Age of Aquarius' dining chairs would look fabulous with a metal and glass dining table. Take a look at the offerings from DAPPR Aviation for more ideas!

‘Stud U Love’ Black Leather Tub Chairs
These leather tub chairs had their previous life as an uninspiring navy reception chair until they got the full Glasshouse Girl treatment!
The original brown studding was removed and the wooden frames stripped back to the bare wood. The genuine leather upholstery is thick and soft making these chairs incredibly comfortable and has been restained jet black.
The frame has been repainted in a modern matte black acrylic paint.
Inspired by the work of New York designer Lee Broom, I've made the studding on these chairs their highlight feature. I've selected a range of decorative upholstery studs in different shapes and colours including flowers, footballs, honeycombs, squares, blacks, glitters, silver, chrome and brass.
Dimensions: 625mm wide x 590mm deep x 775mm high.
If you are looking for a practical and classic chair with a subtle design bite then the 'Stud U Love' Chairs are the perfect piece for you.
As with all my pieces, these chairs are preloved and upcycled. The leather is in excellent condition but there are some minor creases / marks in line with their vintage provenance.
