there are two big rips in my ladderax chair.
One across the middle of the seat back to front and the other tear in the back of the seat where it rubs against the metal framework of the chair. This runs across the seat.
The middle tear is 11" long. There is 2" of leather between this tear and the other tear. There is 4" of leather at the front of the tear plus 2" that wraps under the chair to where the rope ties it on.
The other tear is 8" long. There is 1" of leather to one side of it plus the leather that wraps under the chair and 2" the other side again plus the leather that wraps underneath.
how do you think this should be fixed? glue or sewing... or get a saddler to cut some new leather? it comes off easily... and ties back on.
much appreciated!

Time for new leather as I...
Time for new leather as I don't think what you have there can be salvaged. Good news is, that it should be a easy/inexpensive fix.

joseph claytons
are the people you need.
It's a tannery in Chesterfield and they make hardened leather.

If
you need a more inexpensive solution.
Batchelors in Culford Mews N1 can probably supply something similar, and might even eyelet it for you (if they're in a good mood)
Take the seat along.
Failing that they can supply the eyelets.
