ALLERGY TO FURNITURE: SOURCES OF SUPPLY

Simple slatted beds of solid wood and metal are readily available. Mail order companies, such as Freemans, Littlewoods and Grattans, sell metal frame beds by post (addresses below). Habitat and IKAEA do not sell by post but have a choice of wooden, metal, glass and even marble furniture at reasonable prices. Contact them for details of local branches.

If you want to have upholstered furniture made for you, Multiyork will make chairs, stools and sofas upholstered in cotton wadding, on a beech frame. They will use a totally untreated cotton cover fabric if you supply it (>FABRICS for sources) over a pure cotton barrier interliner fabric to meet fire safety regulations. They have branches around the country or will take postal orders.

Alternatively, contact the Association of Master Upholsterers for local specialist upholsterers.

Treske will make solid wood furniture in any wood of your choice, with a varnish of your choice.

Directors’ chairs made of cotton canvas and varnished wood, are often well tolerated and comfortable. You can also use them to carry with you if you go on holiday, on a visit or if you have problems at work. They are widely available at Habitat, DIY stores and department stores. Also try folding chairs of wood and metal.
