Damaged clock 

Badly water damaged table top

This table had suffered bad water damage. The top was MDF underneath the veneer and had badly swollen. The best course of action was to belt sand the top so it was completely level again and re-veneer to match the original. 

Piano Stool

This smashed piano stool needed a complete new turning.

Convex Gilt Wall Mirror

This wall mirror was in a bad state, falling to bits and the gilding in a poor state.

I gave the horse a full makeover and then fitted it with a full kit - hair, saddle, tail etc

Rocking Horse

 This rocking horse needed a complete restoration. The legs were loose, it had no hair, tail or leatherwork and it had many knocks and chunks out of it.
