Furniture Refinishing
Our furniture refinishing service restores worn or damaged wood surfaces to their original condition. Using hand-rubbed finishes and advanced techniques, we remove scratches, stains, and wear while preserving structural integrity. Clients receive a refreshed piece that maintains its historical or aesthetic value, ideal for tables, chairs, and cabinetry.
Antique Restoration
Antique restoration focuses on reviving historical furniture pieces while maintaining authenticity. We employ period-appropriate materials and methods, including custom rabbit glue for 19th-century repairs, to ensure accuracy. This service caters to clients seeking to preserve the legacy and craftsmanship of valuable heirlooms.
Gold Leafing
Gold leafing enhances furniture with luxurious metallic finishes. Our artisans apply delicate gold leaf to ornate details, frames, and accents, using traditional gilding techniques. This service is ideal for clients aiming to highlight intricate designs or add opulence to antique or modern pieces.
Cabinet Refinishing
Cabinet refinishing revitalizes kitchen or office cabinetry through staining, painting, or sealing. We address wear, discoloration, and structural issues while improving functionality. Clients benefit from durable, updated storage solutions that enhance their space's overall appearance.
French Polishing
French polishing creates a deep, lustrous finish on wood surfaces using shellac and manual application. This labor-intensive technique is ideal for high-end furniture, offering a smooth, glossy appearance that highlights grain patterns. Clients receive a premium finish that elevates the visual appeal of fine woodwork.
