I would never consider myself as a huge fan of Victorian style, probably because I haven’t seen the\u00a0 examples that would look just right for me. And this time I think I’ve found some. One of my latest commissions:<\/p>\n

\"Victorian<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I’ve found the original on one of British antiques sites and fell in love with it, it was dark blue armchair. So I transformed into the whole set. Materials are pearwood, cotton and silk, and huge amount of time of course.<\/p>\n

To make the frames for the sofa and chairs was not that hard, except multiple carved details, I had to redesign the sides once, as they were not deep enough.\u00a0 But it was a good step forward for me with carving. With practice things are getting better and better.<\/p>\n

\"Victorian<\/a><\/p>\n

Surprisingly for me, upholstering was the easiest part, cotton is very fine, so it wasn’t tricky to shape it well. I decorated with a silk braid. Since I started\u00a0 practicing bobbin lace, it was just the right moment to make\u00a0 the braid with bobbins. Looks very good to me.<\/p>\n

And finally, tea table. Very typical design, this time I used mahogany, I just love the color and shades of it on table top. The diameter is just about 4cm, and it’s 8cm high.<\/p>\n

It was really inspiring process for me, started thinking of English roombox, with all those architectural carved details, fireplace, chairs, etc. Hope to make it one day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
