Structural attention
Loose joints, minor breaks, missing fittings and stability issues assessed before surface work.
Furniture restoration
Keep the character. Repair the years.
Good furniture does not need to look new. It needs to be sound, useful and honestly finished for its next setting.
Workshop routes
Restore, refresh or reinvent
Surface recovery
Careful cleaning, preparation and an appropriate finish, with age and material taken into account.
A useful new role
Adapt sound material or a well-made piece when its original use no longer fits.
Assessment before promise
Not every piece should be restored in the same way.
Material, construction, previous repairs, finish, sentimental value and likely cost all matter. The first improvement is an honest route, including when light conservation or no intervention is the better choice.
