STEPHANIE SHARKE
Upholstery & Workshop




About Me
After working as graphic designer in Paris and travelling on long adventures around the world, I returned home to realise my passion of traditional French artistic works in furniture and furnishings.
I studied and trained in the trade of upholstery (tapissier) in Paris and graduated with a Diploma from the Ecole Grégoire.
I later opened my own business in the area famously known as “Les Puces”, the largest antique market in Paris.
Since moving to Sydney, I have honed my craft as an upholsterer, starting with my role at the iconic Original Finish in Newtown. After its closure in 2018, I took the leap to open my own upholstery workshop in Sydney’s Inner West. During this time, I had the privilege of collaborating with renowned professionals, including antique specialist Nikolaus Teply of Marrickville Art & Furniture Restoration and French master upholsterer Eric Ahlfors of Intoo Upholstery and Furniture Manufacturer.
So don’t throw away your prized possessions, it's time for recycling!
