Now for some examples of Repair, Restoration and Conservation I have undertaken
 A pine chest of drawers in a distressed condition needing considerable repairs.
 After repairs I went a stage further and veneered the whole chest in walnut with feather inlay and cross banding.
 A mahogany coffee table which had been painted;
 The same table after restoration
 A Regency period wine cooler which Had got wet and bleached in the sun in a garage for thirty years
 The same after restoration
 A Georgian mahogany pie crust tilt top
Table which has been conserved by
cleaning with a reviver, filling surface cracks
caused by modern central heating) with wax, leaving
all old stains and patina as history, and repolishing
 Early 18th century French bombe commode veneered in Kingwood with ormolu metal work. Damaged sections of veneer were repaired and french polished to match. A missing sabot (foot) was commissioned and all ormulu was then detached and sent away for regilding. Drawer runners were repaired and extensive woodworm treated to restore the piece to something very close to its original condition.
