Barcelona Replacement Components Barcelona Style Replacement Straps: Replacement Barcelona straps is a specialty of ours. We've been making replica Barcelona straps for years. It is important to note that we use only the finest, hand-selected, top-grain leather hides, offering many years of durability. We are experts at color matching. Send us a sample from your piece and we will create the straps and color them to your specifications. Furthermore, if you only need one or two straps and the rest are still in good condition, then send us all the straps, we can refinish the ones that don’t need replacement, making them all appear like-new. We hand craft each Barcelona strap to order. They are cut to the exact width and length as specified. We then punch the holes, for attaching the straps to the frame, pre-form the ends for ease of installation, and color them to the specification defined by the client. Typical time-line for production is 3 - 4 weeks. Cost for replacement straps is $75 per strap. There are 17 straps in total. Therefore it costs $1275 for a full set of replacement straps. Often, many straps may still be in reasonably good condition. In this case, we can refinish the existing straps for $15 per strap, or $255 for the full set of 17. In many cases only some of the straps require replacement in which case we can mix and match new straps with refinished straps. To this fee add shipping, usually $25.00 (insured UPS ground). Sales tax applies if you are a resident of California. Barcelona Style Replacement Cushions: Creating replica Barcelona cushions is a challenge for even the most skilled upholstery experts. There are 16 layers of leather to sew through at each junction point. Therefore, seaming the button-tufted intersecting welts that crisscross each cushion requires patience and precision. We pay very careful attention to detail, with each cushion built by the hands of seasoned craftsmen. Furthermore, we use only the finest top-grain leather for many years of durability. And, we color match to the specification of the client. All work is done, one custom cushion at a time. We don’t begin the construction process until we have secured the commitment of the client. Our fee for a replica Barcelona cushion is $900. For the pair (backrest and seat) our fee is $1600. Allow 3 - 4 weeks for project completion. As with Barcelona straps, shipping and sales tax may apply. There are reproduction Barcelona chairs (sometimes called pavilion chairs) available for less money.
