Resurrect stories, preserve legacies, keep art alive.
Restoration not only honors craftsmanship - it benefits the environment by reducing waste and conserving natural resources. Each repaired piece diverts it’s potential fate of ending up in a landfill, while also minimizing the need for new raw materials (like wood and metal), helping curb deforestation and reducing energy-intensive manufacturing processes.

Pricing for restoration services varies based on size of piece, extent of damage, and how quickly the repair needs to be completed.

Structural Repair
Repair broken joints, splintered wood, missing segments, and other foundational mishaps. The use of traditional techniques ensures restorations that are true to the original piece's era and style. My workshop echoes with the sounds of many age-old tools — the same implements that craftspeople have relied on for centuries.
Pictured above is the base of a massive dining table which had a leg completely broken off. Using epoxy resin it was carefully set back in place, missing chunks were filled, and finally, it was all clamped in place.

Refinishing
Don't let furniture hide beneath layers of old finish - strip off old paint/stain revealing it’s natural beauty. Remove water stains, sun damage, or milky blemishes without undoing the soul of the piece. Clean, polish, and protect original finishes to honor decades of character.
Pictured above is a side table that I stripped, re-stained, and topped with a glossy finish.

Reupholstery
We begin with a thorough assessment of your piece, discussing your preferences and providing recommendations. Once we decide on a new pattern to use, the piece is carefully disassembled. I will then meticulously apply the new fabric, paying close attention to smooth creases. Lastly, the finishing details, such as decorative trims or new cushion fillings, are installed to perfect your newly reupholstered piece.
Pictured above is a set of dining chairs an antique store had in their inventory and wanted revamped. I repainted the wood, and reupholstered it’s old/dated fabric with a luxurious blue velvet.
