NSW Golf Club furniture refurb

The club's armchairs

Located at the mouth of Botany Bay, NSW Golf Club is rated in the top 50 courses in the world. The club’s 150 dining, club and armchairs needed updating, but instead of replacing with new, Strand advised to give the existing stock a complete makeover. Years before, the club had invested in well-made seating and it was worth rejuvenating them. Each chair was stripped, re-glued, polished and re-upholstered to refresh the club’s interior while maintaining its tradition. One of the real challenges of the job was sourcing that wonderful striped fabric specified by the club. Thanks to our experience and fabric knowledge, we were able to track down the original mill in America and custom make the fabric again.

The result was a delighted client. “Our House Committee wanted to keep the original chairs and we were extremely happy with the furniture refurbishment work and the cost savings involved.  Working with Stuart has been easy and very professional,” says Michael Williams, House Manager of the NSW Golf Club.

The dining room

While Strand supplies furniture to club, hotel and corporate clients, its experience means that it can see the value in making something well. It’s one of the reasons why it represents the brands that it does. Our Papillion sofas, for example, are hand-made in Melbourne and are built to last with 15 year warrantees on its hardwood frames.
