To achieve good results, a furniture restorer needs to have mastered skills that extend beyond those required of a modern furniture maker. This means that a restorer has to be flexible in his approach and cut any new joints in harmony with the existing ones, then they will not cause stress and they will look entirely natural.

Below are a few examples of furniture I have restored over the years, and I have shown most of them before and after restoration. The photographs were taken by me with whatever camera was at hand, and with little preparation, and are not of the best quality but give you an idea of what can be done.

Painting furniture really makes a difference! I can, however, return a piece to you without any ageing and the paint will wear naturally in a nice subtle way. If you want a tougher finish that will resist wear and tear that bit more, there are paint brands like Farrow and Ball with their great range of colours. If you're interested in having a piece of your furniture painted, please get in touch using the details found on my contact. Let me show you how. Pound;90 for a six hour working day 10 am - 5 pm.
