A craft to rediscover

Upholstery is a centuries-old craft: reworking chairs, sofas, benches and armchairs from frame to finish. As upcycling grows popular, such workshop sales democratise professional supplies and help people start restoring their own furniture. Vintage fabrics also fit sewing, decoration and art.

Joussé, a discreet Sud-Vienne village

Joussé (86350) sits among hedgerows and little valleys, 30 min south-east of Poitiers. Romanesque church, hamlets, preserved environment loved by peace seekers. Dense local associations: festivals, hunting, fishing, heritage. Sud-Vienne draws new residents and art craftspeople looking for workshop space.

Visiting tips

Craft workshop sales attract connoisseurs: come early, bring strong bags (fabrics are heavy) and cash. Beginners: chat with the upholsterer for restoration advice and suppliers.
