Introducing Kathy Rich's Positively Paisley Chair

Welcoming today's warm wonder to our blog is Kathy Rich's reupholstered chair titled, "Positively Paisley." Mrs. Rich shows her style and class through the exquisite craftsmanship applied to this antique collectible Heywood-Wakefield classic.

Mrs. Rich shares, "This chair was donated from Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ at Ancilla and had its original finish. The Heywood-Wakefield's descriptive label is still on it! I wanted to give it a fresh look so I decided to reupholster the seat. After removing the leather upholstery, I found animal hair being used as the padding. I left it intact!"

This stately seat can help dress a room up or down depending on the day and need. Positively Paisley can be previewed during this month's Chairs for Charity Parade by stopping by Fisher's & Company (Fisher & Company Clothiers, 111 S Main St, Culver, IN 46511, (574) 842-2671.) This chair will be available for purchase during the upcoming live auction. The Gala Auction is Sunday, June 28th. Tickets are currently available to purchase while *seating* is available! Ask a Tri Kappa member or purchase your tickets at City Tavern today!
