In this print titled "Chair Caning: An unusual sight in London" we are transported back to January 1971, where the old craft of chair caning is being revived by Mr. John Browning. At the age of 38, hailing from Battersea, he sits on the edge of the pavement on Ladbroke Grove, diligently repairing a cane chair. The artistry and skill required for chair caning were passed down to Mr. Browning by his father-in-law, an experienced craftsman who has dedicated his entire life to this traditional trade. Armed with knowledge handed down through generations, Mr. Browning now travels across London seeking work based solely on recommendations. This photograph captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the importance of preserving our heritage and maintaining these rare skills that might otherwise be lost in modern times. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints' collection, we are reminded that behind every piece of furniture lies a story waiting to be told—a tale woven together by skilled tradesmen like Mr. Browning who breathe new life into worn-out chairs while honoring their historical significance.
