A rare George III solid yew-wood pembroke table – UK1881
I’ve enjoyed having this beautiful 18th century English yew-wood side table in my apartment for the past few years.
Being a dealer and having such special pieces, I have the enjoyment of living with, then selling once replacing.
I’ll truly miss this table, however living in an apartment forces one to cull!
This table will be back in my showroom next week.

Easy Dining Room Upgrade – Remarkable Improvement!
Shaun Rodwell helped me deliver this farmhouse table yesterday afternoon. Looked fantastic!
Last photo was the one we replaced. Huge improvement and very happy customer…
You’ll also notice a delightful Norfolk Chest, I sold to her a few years ago.

1686 – 1986
Notice how even a retro made semi Chippendale style dining chair can match so well with a striking piece of art 300 years older.
Contemporary framing can completely change the look of a copper engraving, painting, lithograph, even old photos. It’s not hard.
These chairs were unattractive, dark and had shocking patterned upholstery.
Once again, it’s not too hard to improve a chair.
I have these in a window display this week.
Quite eye catching, along with the descriptions of both.
As always it’s important to create interesting window displays
An attractive Set of Six 20th Century Australian Ash Chippendale Style Dining Chairs, now white.
The shaped top rail, above a fret carved tapered centre splat, flanked by shaped tapered uprights.
The freshly upholstered soft mint chenille seats blending beautifully.
Resting on a square leg, joined by stretchers.
This set of chairs were very tired, so we cleaned back the surface and refinished them in a soft white.
Would never dream of doing this to a period chair, however this method of restoration has vastly improved these.
These chairs would look fantastic with a period french fruitwood farmhouse table.
The last set I sold through a decorator in 2009.
These chairs also featured in a home I dressed in Elwood 2009.
To see the story of the Elwood home, search ‘Elwood’ on this website.

One from a rare set of six late 18th Century English Country Yew Wood Triple Bow Windsor Arm Chairs
I sold these to good customers twenty years ago.
They are now moving and need to sell.
I’m always happy to re sell rare items I’ve handled over the past three decades, as they’re so hard to find.

RESTORATION – Not for sale.
We just finished restoring this fantastic set of 19th century English Country Regency dining chairs.
A customer purchased them not realising that many users ago, someone had drilled holes through every leg and seat rail, tying a coat hanger style metal brace.
Once removed, not easily, they were a complete mess!
Eddie took each chair apart and rebuilt them. We cleaned back, filled the holes, disguised the repairs and refinished them.
Cut back and waxed today and ready to deliver.
I thought I’d share the process with you.
Note: still to be reupholstered.
