·Hi OF
I have a crater box that I think the inner insert has been reupholstered and was looking for opinions. It is a thicker corduroy than the rest of the material, but has aged to the same tone and feel as the tighter material. Every picture I have seen has the tighter, thinner lined material like lines the rest of this box on the insert as well. (Pretty sure insert is correct otherwise)
If they didn’t look like they matched as far as color/aging I wouldn’t even ask but since they do I am curious what your opinion is. I don’t think it had the value 20+ years ago to go through the effort to do this but I don’t know. Hard to capture for me in photos but the “patina” of age and light staining really matches up and material feels the same to the touch.
