Gerd Lange Farmer Chair restauration  

Hi All,

We picked up a couple of Lange Farmer chairs, that were in pretty beat shape. The canvas in particular is stained and has holes and needs replacement (or pro repair). I couldn't find replacement canvas for those for sale, so we might try to sow our own.

-Anyone knows where I could find replacement, and if not;
-Anyone has particular advice on the choice of fabric to restore those (since the fabric is part of the structural integrity of these chairs, I figure this choice might be critical...)

The photos are not our chairs but the same model from a designaddict radar post:
