Crafted with Passion

The Art of Restoration

Every piece that comes into the shop has a story worth keeping. Some of it is in the grain, some of it is in the repairs somebody made eighty years ago. The work is deciding what to keep and what to put right, and that judgement is 35 years in the making, 24 of them in the Dallas Fort Worth area.

Traditional methods where they matter, modern ones where they are genuinely better. Veneer relaid and carving cut to match the original, finishes mixed to the colour the piece already wears.

The workshop

Services

Wood, finish, fabric and mechanism, all under one roof. Bring the piece, or photographs of it, and we will tell you honestly what it needs.

Antique Restoration

Veneer repair · Custom carving · Wood repair & stabilising · Colour matching

Period pieces brought back without erasing their age. Veneer relaid, carving let in, colour matched to what is already there.

Joint regluing · Parts cut to match · Welding & soldering · Glass & curved glass

Structural work. Loose joints taken apart and reglued square, split rails repaired, missing parts cut to match the originals.

Refinishing

Stripping & refinishing · Painted finishes · Colour matching · Marble, granite & ceramic

Old finishes revived where they can be and rebuilt by hand where they cannot, matched to what the piece originally wore.

Caning & rush · Fabric · Leather · Seats rebuilt

Down to the frame and back up again, in your fabric or leather, or one chosen with you.

Mechanical Restoration

Clock movements · Phonographs & radios · Jukeboxes & sewing machines · Recliner mechanisms

The half of the piece that moves. Clock movements, phonograph and radio works, jukeboxes and recliner mechanisms, not only the cabinets around them.

Custom Work

Built to dimension · Sofas & hardwood frames · Hand carving · Fabric & finish

Built to your dimensions when the right piece does not exist. Hardwood frames, joined the way the antiques on the next bench are joined.

From the shop

Our Work

A few of the pieces that have come through the shop on Regency Drive.

Before: two carved oak-coloured armchairs with barley-twist legs, their upholstery torn away to bare hessian and stuffing spilling onto the floor. After: the same two chairs re-covered in a cream fabric with a green and rust crewel vine pattern, the frames cleaned and glowing.

Upholstery

Two carved armchairs, stuffing hanging out of both, re-covered in a crewel-pattern fabric.
Before: a 1930s-style waterfall cedar chest with a hazy, greyed-out finish in a workshop. After: the same chest refinished, its book-matched veneer front glowing amber and brown against a panelled wall.

Refinishing

A waterfall chest with the finish gone cloudy and grey, refinished so the matched veneer shows again.
Before: a carved rocking chair with a cane back and a cane seat broken through in the centre, standing on a garage floor. After: the same rocker in front of a fireplace with a new hand-woven cane seat and the original back.

Cane-Back Rocker

Caning

Seat cane gone through in the middle. Rewoven by hand, and the back left as it was.
Before: a battered dome-top steamer trunk with broken wooden slats and a split lid, sitting on a garage floor. After: the same trunk restored, with new slats, a dark leather-look body and polished brass corners, clasps and lock.

Dome-Top Trunk

Restoration

Slats broken, lid split, hardware missing. Rebuilt and refitted with brass.
Before: a tall-case grandfather clock in a pale honey finish standing in a garage beside a chair. After: the same clock refinished a deep dark brown, standing against a warm plaster wall with its brass dial cleaned.

Clock Case

Before: a small blonde roll-top desk with a tambour top and two side drawers, in a workshop. After: the same desk refinished a deep brown with the tambour closed and the drawer pulls replaced, on a rug in a sitting room.

Refinishing

The process

How It Works

Four steps, and most of the first one happens without the piece leaving your house.

  1. 01

    Send photographs

    The whole piece, then the damage close up, then any maker’s mark or label. Rough dimensions help. Most estimates begin and end here.

  2. 02

    We look it over

    What the piece is, what has already been done to it, and what it needs. Sometimes the answer is that it needs very little, and we say so.

  3. 03

    The work

    Joints apart and back together, surfaces built up by hand, upholstery down to the frame. You hear from us if anything under the surface changes the plan.

  4. 04

    Back in the room

    Collected from the shop in Wylie, or delivered. The piece goes home reading as itself, not as new.

Where we work

Serving the Northeast Metroplex

The shop is on Regency Drive in Wylie, off Highway 78. Pieces come to us from across Collin, Dallas and Rockwall counties. Call before you load anything into a car and we will tell you whether it needs to travel at all.
