Karen Sneath

With a background in fibres and textiles, Karen developed an interest in chairs and their components while employed by an auctioneer. With purchased chairs often in need of repair, she set out to learn the art of seat restoration, and 25 years later she is recognized as one of the few people in Niagara with refined caning, rushwork and splint weaving skills. She also offers some related furniture repair services, including wicker restoration.
