The Pair That Didn't Get Away

Those of you who have been reading H&H for a while have seen these, but I am in a hurry so I had to make this pretty quick. These (before) pictures are chairs that once belonged to my Great Grandmother and have been passed down through the generations to me. I LOVE them. I would probably not buy them if I saw them, but I am very attached to these. When we first moved in (hence the mess) they are one of the first things I tackled. Trust me picking a fabric was not easy and if you look closely in the picture below you can see some of the choices.Here they are after. (For now since knowing me they will change MANY times throughout my lifetime) I covered them in Fabricut Bertrand. I decided to go with something monotone, although close up the background is several colors. I also went with a raised velvet pattern, I love velvet, I could upholster things in it all day.
Different view, there are 2 of them that face each other.
The back is currently a Gray velvet but that changes all the time too. I wanted to put something CRAZY on the back but haven't found exactly what I am looking for.Yes, that is the same room as in the second picture, I do not miss moving. What do you have that you love and will never part with?

Fabric: Fabricut Bertrand Color: 03
Pillow: Pablo Mekis
Back Fabric: (similiar) Pindler Velluto-Graphite
*All of these are "to the trade" but if you are ever interested in trade goods please e-mail me for information or pricing.
