To my knowledge, the name Christy and restoration goes back at least four generations. My great grandfather, grandfather and my father (pictured left chair caning in the streets of London on site and under street gas lamps at night.) were all street traders and restorers in London, mainly chair caning, china riveting and carpet, rug and furniture repairs.
In 1968 my grandfather and father taught me to re-cane and re-rush chairs for pleasure, and at the age of 13 I finished my first bentwood chair. I was soon repairing chair frames, rush seating, and restoring furniture.
