photo : original XVIII th century armchair : fauteuil à chassis ( I'll translate later)
Every time I have to choose for the shop , for the show room it is the same question :
which fabric to choose ?
velvet or silk ?
Cotton or linen ?
plain or graphic ?
Classical or modern?
beige or red ?
Paisley or suzani
If it is really , it is colorful with ethnic design : Suzani is my favorite
but whar would you choose for this special armchair , I'm waiting for your advice ....
I love a solid linen with maybe an embroidered vine pattern - not too dense?

Oh dear,
What a HARD problem!!!
I LOVE SO many fabrics.
The chair frame says: "Dress me in blue Duponi silk with a large brown print upon it. Still, I will like whatever you pick"
This beautiful chair trusts you to make the right decision!! And you will. I just know.

I think you know what I would choose but I would have to go vintage clothes shopping for the right thing :)

i am very sure i would go with plain. very sure.
if it were me, i would go classic but i know you can make something look really good modern
so, for fabric material i would go silky
i have to take photos of the chairs i found on ebay and send them to you- just to see what you think.
don't forget to show this again when it is finished
