At West Interior Design, we bring your cherished antique and classic furniture back to life. With decades of craftsmanship and upholstery expertise, we specialise in restoring beloved pieces—especially Parker Knoll sofas, chairs and statement furniture—back to comfort and beauty.

Whether your piece needs a full rebuild, new cushioning, period-appropriate fabric selection, or just a stylish refresh, our upholstery services are tailored to give each item a respectful and high-quality restoration.

Why Choose Us for Parker Knoll Reupholstery?

Parker Knoll furniture is known for its timeless design, solid frames, and handcrafted quality. Many older models were marked with identifying numbers, helping you recognise the style and history of your piece before restoration.

We routinely reupholster and restore classic Parker Knoll models, including:

  • Statesman (PKN-STSM) – iconic retro design with distinctive swivel bases.

  • Burghley (PKN-1952) – elegant classic with scroll arms and deep buttoning.

  • Henley (PKN-HLY) – supportive traditional chair with excellent posture comfort.

  • Dakota (PKN-DKT) – cleaner modern aesthetic suited to more contemporary interiors.

  • Other traditional and vintage pieces such as wing-back chairs, Froxfield, Norton, chatsworth and more.

We can identify and document your Parker Knoll piece even if the original label has faded or been lost, helping ensure historically accurate upholstery choices wherever possible.

How It Works

  1. Initial Assessment & Model Identification

  2. Consultation & Quote
    We’ll discuss your goals—restore to original style, update the look, or something bespoke—then provide a clear, itemised quote.

    Your restored furniture returns looking and feeling like new—without losing its vintage character.
