Hi, I was wondering if there is someone in this group who knows where to get material needed for upholstery and antiques restoration. This is not for a company but for private use. We're especially...
Cushion Works on 18 th in San Francisco has a great many upholstery supplies. Phone is 415-552-6220. Keystone Bros. on Custer is another source. Phone is 415-282-5050. You won't find horsehair; it's illegal in California unless it is already in the piece. (Flammability issues.) Technically, if you're doing the work for someone besides yourself, you're not supposed to reuse it. In other words, professional upholsters re-upholstering client pieces are not to reuse horsehair. If the work is your own, then you can reuse it. Check the California Home Furnishings Bureau website for more details Jason Allen-Rouman
