Definitely the best of the three because of the attention to details, in spite of the fact that the AT restoration one is positively insane for the amount of work...
Great job! I may have voted for AT, but truly it was us, the viewers, who won this competition.

Really beautiful result! Those springs sure looked like a headache to put in! My mom has told me how much she loved the Biedermeier chairs her grandma had in Hungary. She said the fabric was really colourful, but I’m guessing that they had been reupholstered. I think that the generations of people who had and loved these chairs would be pleased with your result ❤️

I love when you must take off damaged veneer, and then save the small pieces to restore other parts of the furniture. Such care is moving, I have no other word. I love old furniture, the amount of history embedded in them, and I'm still trying to find HERE traditional products (as you have), like some kinds of glues, lacquers, waxes, to preserve them as original as I can. Alas, we are a too modern country, and poor, it means there is nothing of the sort here, and importing them is quite impo$$ible 🙄. Still trying to do my best, even if doesn't come close to what YOU do, not just because of appropriate insumes and tools - but your skill!! Wonderful 😳🤩. Humble compliments!

Great work! A little hint on your english translation: in the german language the word "Federn" (engl. feathers) is used s for the outer cover, plumage, of birds and also for metallic devices that can be compressed and expanded. The english word for the latter term is "spring". So you put in to the chair new springs, not feathers.

The chair is gorgeous. Great job of restoration. I once restored an antique chair, but I used a heavy foam cushion for the seat on top of a plywood support that I used for the base instead of webbing. It wasn't a kosher restoration, but it turned out beautifully and everyone admired it. I gave it to my daughter and her father-in-law claimed it for himself. He spent many a happy year sitting in that chair before he passed.

Привет коллега, работа проделана большая, сложная, очень сложная. Самое сложная часть работы, это закрепить пружины и наполнение. Столярные работы выполнить проще, значительно проще, чем классическую обивку с пружинами. Из за того что классическая реставрация процесс сложный, а получаемый результат не всегда радует. Антиквары и сотрудники музея лучше и ПРАВИЛЬНО оценят результаты выполненых работ с этим стулом. Я не имею цели обидеть мастера, мне лично не нравится как подготовлена поверхность под лак. Я уверен поверхность должна быть ровной и гладкой. А мебель должна выглядеть как новая. (Шеллаком этого не добиться) По этому я занимаюсь только восстановлением мебели и в работе применяю только современные инструменты и материалы. С уважением ваш коллега и подписчик. П.с. я не говорю на английском, только русский. ---- Hello colleague, a lot of work has been done, difficult, very difficult. The most difficult part of the job is to fix the springs and filling. Carpentry is easier to do, much easier than the classic upholstery with springs. Due to the fact that classical restoration is a complex process, and the result is not always pleasing. Antiquarians and museum staff will better and CORRECTLY evaluate the results of the work done with this chair. No offense, I have no purpose to offend the master, I personally do not like how the surface is prepared for varnish. I'm sure the surface should be smooth and even. And the furniture should look like new. (Shellac will not achieve this) For this reason, I am engaged only in the restoration of furniture and use only modern tools and materials in my work. Sincerely, your colleague and subscriber. PS I don't speak English.

Biedermeier pieces are my favorite to see restored. The use of various interesting wood-grains in veneers, colors in paints and stains, and the almost modernistic styles is fascinating to me. Such pieces are rare today, possibly because furniture styles changed so drastically after this trend and the use of veneers resulted in such damage to them.

Those springs ("feathers") looked way too thick for this application the minute you showed them, so I'm not surprised at all that they gave you difficulty! I'm not an expert, just someone who has watched quite a lot of this kind of work. Have you seen Ahti do reupholstery? It never looks easy, even though it's clear he knows what he's doing at every stage and it always comes out perfect. What I'm saying is, you did a brave thing in trying this out for the first time on a challenge, and the seat came out far better at the end than I was afraid it would when I first saw those springs. 💜 Both you and Il Makerstauratore have a new subscriber thanks to this fun challenge.

The work you did on the veneer was great and you showed that no piece of furniture deserves to go to the landfill if at least some parts are still solid. Keep up the good work (I think Ahti won this challenge, but you get a thumbs up nontheless, because this was inspiring!).
