Home Soft Furnishings

Bespoke Home Soft Furnishings by Jerome Shorter

At Jerome Shorter we take a comprehensive view of custom soft furnishings making sure everything we create produces optimal aesthetic and practical benefits. We work in close partnership with our clients listening intently to their wishes and goals and enabling those goals to find expression in the form of…

• Curtains – In our opinion curtains are too important to be bought off the shelf at the home improvement centre. We work with you to determine the just right style and materials for your curtains in order to ensure they activate your windows.
• Window dressings – Window dressings are not limited to curtains so we explore every possibility in order to ensure your windows get the treatment they deserve and that they complement your furniture, rugs, wall coverings and lighting scheme.
• Upholstery – Upholstery is one of our most important luxury soft furnishings because it not only has a huge impact on the room’s colour scheme but, unlike window dressings, it also comes in direct contact with the home’s inhabitants and guests. It takes a great deal of experience and expertise to produce just the right upholstery, the kind of expertise and experience you will find at Jerome Shorter.

Our 4-Step Process

Step 1: The initial enquiry – Using the contact form on our site you let us know in as much detail as possible what you have in mind.

Step 2: In-home visit – In some, (not all) cases it will be necessary for our designer to conduct an on-site visit in order to more fully understand the particulars of the project.

Step 3: Fabrication – There are a number of variables that go into the creation of custom soft furnishings so it is not something that is done overnight. Expect the process to take 4-6 weeks.

Step 4: Delivery – Once your luxury soft furnishings are finished you will have the option of picking them up or having us deliver them to your location.

Jerome’s team took on a very challenging task of reupholstering an Ottoman for me with my own fabric. They took so much care, and there was such great attention to detail. I am so pleased with the end result, it is beyond my wildest expectation. I’m really grateful to him and his team for the love and time put into it and for their ongoing communication wrt the process. Would 100% use them again and recommend to anyone looking for a job well done. Thank you so much. This piece will be held onto forever.

Jerome and his team has just completed the recovering of eight large leather dining chairs and a full set of fabric outdoor furniture (chaise, sofas and 10 dining chairs). These had all been owned and used for many years and we had feared they would require replacing. Not so! Jerome collected sad looking furniture and delivered back what looks like brand new replacements. Our furniture has been given a new lease of life and we couldn’t recommend Jerome Shorter Furniture enough. Not only is the work first class but the service and communication was exceptional. Thank you Jerome.

I can only describe the reupholster job of my large 3 seater and two chaise lounges handled by Jerome and his team as top class! It was an excellent re-enacting of my original luxury furniture, looked exactly the same! Their care and precision is commendable...I highly recommend them.

We have ordered a replacement leather cushion from Jerome and are very pleased with the quality and attention to detail. Would definitely recommend their service.

We wanted to recycle some modern leather dining chairs rather than replace them but we couldn't find the right contact who we trusted to do what we needed - we found Jerome and he immediately understood what we wanted and gave us some great advice and ideas. We are now extremely pleased to have 8 re-covered chairs which look amazing and so much better quality and value than buying new! The quality of the work is superb and we can't recommend Jerome and his team highly enough. We will be using them time and again to recycle/refresh other items which we already love (sofas, chaise longue, etc).

Having had two chairs re-rushed and one chair re-upholstered, we have no hesitation in recommending Jerome Shorter for both quality of workmanship and for excellent service.

Thanks to Jerome and his team, our sofa and chairs have been transformed, as has our whole sitting room. The work is of the highest standard and Jerome was a pleasure to work with. I will certainly recommend Jerome Shorter Furniture to my friends and family.

I had three pieces(a sofa and two wing chairs) to re-upholster which had never been in the same room together before. Mr. Shorter took pictures of the pieces and the carpet they had to coordinate with and gave me some design ideas. This did not work. He recommended stores where I could obtain swatches of fabric. After numerous attempts on my own Mr Shorter came again to my apartment and selected fabrics I had not thought to combine. A perfect choice and I could not be happier with the result-a fresh, colourful, contemporary design for the entire room. Excellent reupholstering for old furniture. I highly recommend Mr. Shorter to anyone who wishes to add new life to one or more pieces.
