TRADITIONAL &
MODERN UPHOLSTERY
Bespoke upholstery by Elaine O’Donovan
Elaine at work…
I am an AMUSF-trained upholsterer based in the Greater London area, specialising in the restoration and reupholstery of furniture across a wide range of styles. From Victorian armchairs to mid-century modern and contemporary pieces.
I believe every piece of furniture has a story worth preserving. My work is rooted in sustainability and craftsmanship, giving tired or damaged pieces a new lease of life and helping to keep quality furniture out of landfill.
Tailored to You
Whether you’re restoring a cherished family heirloom or updating a piece to suit a modern interior, I offer a fully bespoke service. From fabric selection to the finest finishing details, every project is completed with precision, care, and respect for the original character of the piece.
Commissions
I welcome commissions of all sizes. If you have a piece in mind, I’d be happy to discuss your ideas and guide you through the process. Get in touch today to start your project.

Services
As well as traditional upholstery, I have a real passion for mid-century modern pieces and I enjoy giving these beautiful chairs a new lease of life. I also make bespoke window seat cushions as well as bespoke upholstered headboards & scatter cushions.
Whether you are looking to preserve a piece of furniture that has been in your family for decades or are looking to change a piece to fit a new interior, I am available for commissions. Please get in touch.
