Furniture restoration can be quite difficult depending on the age, condition, wood type as well as the amount of intricate detailing on the piece. However, having said that these antiques can be magnificant if restored correctly. I've had customers almost come to tears when they saw their Grandma's old piece restored to it's original beauty. It's something they can cherish for the rest of their lives as well as pass on to their children and their children's children. How can you put a price on that?
