1st May 2019 - Antique Desks - Restoration Examples
Over the years we have restored a large number of antique desks,
writing tables, desk chairs and reading tables. Restorations range from
light cleaning and waxing to full structural repairs to rare and valuable
desks that were worth the effort to return them to full use. Leather tops
can be revived or replaced where necessary. In all cases we tried to
retain as much originality as possible while making sure that the piece would be
fully functional for many years to come. Examples - before and after - can
be seen on our Antique Desks
Restoration Page.
