          Antique Furniture & Heirloom Restoration

           

          Authentic restoration of any piece is truly an art form. It requires a level of expertise, knowledge, and craftsmanship that have become very uncommon in our modern times— where everything is made to be disposable, and nothing is made to last.

          Antique Furniture Restoration Defined

          Restoration as defined by Webster’s dictionary as “a bringing back into a former, normal or unimpaired state or condition…a representation of the original form.” In other words, restoring involves bringing back the original condition through the investigation of what process fits the need, the historical, sentimental, and intrinsic value of any piece. A unique piece requires a unique process.

Not only are we committed to preserving family heirlooms and wood furniture for generations and generations, but we must pass the torch of masterful craftsmanship, historical knowledge of antiques and time-honored restoration practices to the next generation of craftsmen or this art will fade into the ether and so will generations of wood furniture and family heirlooms.

          Result:

          • Increased value and usability

          • Preservation of family history

          Positive:

          Restoration can produce excellent results and increase value when a piece needs major repair and has historical, sentimental and intrinsic value.

          Negative:

          Restoration can cost as much as replacement and must be measured by an individual assessment of historical, sentimental and intrinsic value.
