A few photos around my showroom this afternoon.
See video.
We restored this pair of bentwoods for a customer recently.
Quite a transformation.
Thought I’d show you how easy it is to re buff existing wax finishes.
I find flannelette the best for a good easy shine. Cut all seams from material.
Use your palm on a flat surface, obviously fingers into corners or threads, such as this.
Before and after photos.
Also the last wine thread I had, turned into a standard lamp.
My Wednesday crew are back!
Mary and John hanging out with myself and Jack this morning.
Was great to be together again.
Mary visits most Wednesday’s after her acupuncture next door.
John’s been in hospital for many operations over the past few months, we chat and message daily, but nothing like a catch up.
Mary often brings me flowers from her garden.
Today was some pretty Port Wine Magnolia.
Thank you both, you made my week.
Restoration of a late Georgian mahogany, beautifully silk upholstered arm chair
We recently restored this late Georgian mahogany, beautifully silk upholstered arm chair for a customer.
He’s owned it for years. His cheeky new puppy thought the moulded hand rest was tasty!
Great work patching and re carving thanks Eddie. I did the colouring, not easy with the silk.
David polished, cut back and re wax finished.
Great teamwork here as always, and one very happy customer!

Charlie & Jack did all the preparation months ago.
Stripped the thick sticky red/brown lacquer, removed the same applied felt and prepared for (Graeme Davidson, Woodshed Antiques) to re felt.
