Professional Repairs and Restorations

We are Kathy and Jim Morrison, doing business as Morrison's Chair Caning. We have been professional chair seat restorers for about thirty years. We can restore most chair seats in cane, be it press or machine cane, "blind" or "French" cane, traditional hand cane, as well as shaker tape, or fiber rush.

Morrison's works with local furniture restoration experts, which allows us to offer a broad array of general repair services. While we specialize in cane, rush, or shaker-tape, our coordination with these experts greatly widens the scope of our offerings to you. We look forward to the opportunity to professionally restore your existing chair to its original utility! View Restorations for further information.

Want to do it yourself? Morrison's also sells the materials, on an "as available" basis, necessary for you to cane or shaker-tape for yourself! Check out Supplies for the some of the available alternatives. If we do not have what you need, we can direct you to the proper source.

For your convenience, Morrison's accepts cash, money orders, personal and/or business checks as payment for all restoration services. We do NOT accept credit cards at this time.

Exhibitions and Craft Events

As of September 9, 2007, we have RETIRED from craft shows and from sales of new furniture. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our fellow artists and craftsmen, patrons, show sponsors and promoters, and friends who have supported us for the past many years.

While we no longer do shows, we are still open for repair work in our Gaithersburg, Maryland studio.

Product Testing

It is only appropriate to add a SPECIAL thanks to our dedicated four person PRODUCT TEST team. As the above staff pictures demonstrate, these poor people spent hours "hard at work".
