Upholstery

At Debbie Ferguson Upholstery, each piece is individually restored and reupholstered by hand, combining traditional craftsmanship with a bespoke finish tailored to your home. 

Hi, I'm Debbie - the hands and mind behind Debbie Ferguson Upholstery.

After a career in education and Fine Art, I retrained as an upholsterer to follow my passion for craftsmanship and design.  I specialise in restoring and reupholstering furniture, combining traditional and modern techniques with an eye for detail. 

​

I believe that well-made pieces deserve to be loved for years to come, and I take pride in transforming them into something both beautiful and personal to your home.
