We have spent the last thirty years actively involved in the restoration, conservation, and trade of fine antique furniture. During this time we have gained a wealth of specialist knowledge and experience. We also offer a consultancy service on different sides of the antiques trade. We are heavily involved in the assessment of furniture following fire and flood damage. This service involves visiting the property, advising on damaged items and compiling a detailed report for insurance companies. On numerous occasions we have been asked to advise on furniture acquisitions.
We like to think no antique furniture restoration job is too big, too small or too difficult whether it be in wood, tortoiseshell, mother of pearl, or ivory. Restoration can involve all sorts of different skills from cabinet-making to carving, veneer work to marquetry, boulle and polishing. We carry out all forms of cabinet-making for example making new legs, reconstructing whole pieces of furniture or making entire new bases for ornate cabinets. Old wood is used for all repairs whenever possible.
My husband and I took part in two courses a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed both! Great company, lovely home-made lunches, interactive workshops and we came away with a newly found sense of achievement and in-depth knowledge about antique furniture. We can recommend these courses to anybody who has an interest in antique and beautiful furniture!
These courses are full of fascinating history, and Jeremy's unrivalled knowledge. They are simply great and everyone should go in one of his courses.
4 Day Advanced Course went well - book up now for next year!
Our Antique Furniture Recognition Courses are advertised in Homes & Antiques Feb edition - page 122 - book your place now!
