Danish Cord Replacement- nails or staples?  

@yosa-studio do you have more pictures, also with and without the weaving?

@yosa.studio

It doesn't matter if you use staples or L-nails, both will work.
The construction is a bit odd for a woven seat, what model is the chair?

@herringbone Here is the chair with the weaving. 

And with weaving removed. (Up side down)

@fredhh I’m not sure of the model.. I have not found other examples that have grooved bars and corner brackets either. I was hoping to use the L nails but I think upon inspection realize staples would be the way to go with this model. Navigating the corner brace and the grooves in the bar seem to be more challenging with nails. 

@yosa-studio You could certainly do a mix. Most of it could be done with L-nails I think, but especially with the corner brackets it‘s probably way easier to use staples. Very interesting! Do you have a picture with the chair in total? 

@herringbone thanks, I appreciate the feedback. Here’s a pic of one of the chairs. 

@fredhh I can’t seem to locate a maker or model on the chair. There is this sticker though “Danish Furniture Makers Control”

I just did a quick search and a possible designer could be Poul Volther Frem Rojle. Looks to be constructed in the same way with corner braces and staples.

And in coming full circle- after searching for repair paper cord chair Poul Volther- I found a discussion on this very forum. Though no name is indicated on my chairs- the specs do seem to match the chairs I have. 

I appreciate both of you taking the time to offer feedback!

@yosa-studio Glad we could help. It's always nice to find an old thread like this where every aspect of a given problem is discussed in such a detail. Feel free to post the result of your reweave here. I would love to see it.
