Title: 1950'S Dining room set
Post by: Upholstery Clinic on November 15, 2012, 07:22:52 am
I have a customer who wants 1950's era dining room chairs redone but keep the vintage look.  Anyone know any suppliers who still supply that type of vinyl.

Don't know any WHOLESALE suppliers for "Cracked ice " vinyl, but there are plenty of retailers online:

Most any Naugahyde wholesaler will carry Zodiac (glitter look).

I had a customer who wanted the glitter (zodiac) naugahyde on a dining room set. I researched where to find it and I did here:

but never ended up getting the job, so I haven't ordered from the company to see what i looked like.

Naugahyde Zodiac is sold by Uniroyal.  You can buy cut yardage from Miami and many other places.  There are also competitors who make an imported version.  You can get this from Futura which they call Polaris.  It looks about the same but not exactly.

Another manufacturer that imports a similar looking product is Plastex.  Here is a link to their Sparkel pattern.  https://www.plastex.com/vinyls/nggallery/vinyl/Sparkel/

Here is a link to Naugahyde https://www.naugahyde.com/catalog/pattern.cfm?iteID=4338

Here is Miami which sells it by the yard https://www.miamicorp.com/products/VINYL/SPECIALTY/ZODIAC.aspx
