Grand Prix 3130: construction and work required
The Grand Prix 3130 was designed by Arne Jacobsen. The Grand Prix 3130 features a characteristically angular back with a wide upper section and a narrow waist on four slender metal legs. The seat and back are joined into a pressure-molded shell.
The back’s sloping shoulders and sharply defined profile require precise edges during reupholstery. Visible veneer is restored as a separate surface task.
Choose a service for Grand Prix 3130
You can select Reupholstery and Restoration of a veneer surface as a starting point in the price selector. The quote concerns your own furniture. If several jobs are needed, they are described together in the quote; selections in the price selector are not automatically added together.
The starting price for new covers applies to the selected upholstery type on a usable shell. Full upholstery covers the entire upholstered shell, while front-side upholstery follows the existing interior padding and preserves the exposed rear surface. New filling, converting a bare shell to an upholstered chair, cracks and loose veneer layers are assessed separately. Veneer surface restoration is a separate service and does not include new covers. The metal frame, castors and mechanical functions are not automatically included.
Materials and the appearance you want to preserve
Upholstery fabric, leather, and aniline leather offer different possibilities for surface, color, and wear. The material must fit the curve of the shell and the chosen upholstery type. When restoring visible veneer, the treatment is matched with the existing finish and the condition of the face veneer. A change between veneer, front upholstery, and full upholstery requires a separate assessment.
Photos for assessing Grand Prix 3130
Show the back’s shoulders, the rear of the shell and the underside with fastenings. State the cover type or existing wood finish.
A photo of the markings or model number helps identify the version. State the number of pieces of furniture, previous repairs, and the issues you experience during use. Take photos calmly and with enough light so that both edges and details can be seen.
Starting price and agreement before work
All prices are indicative starting prices per piece of furniture, including VAT. Material consumption, quality, and the actual condition of the furniture can change the final amount. Work is only initiated once materials, scope, and price have been agreed upon in a specific quote. The timing for drop-off and completion is clarified in the same process.
Collection and delivery are agreed separately. See also prices for furniture service, or send images and describe your job.
