An heirloom revived ...

This 1930s writing desk, a cherished family heirloom, had stood the test of time in a home for generations. However, after years of use, it had worn down, its surface scratched, its joints loose, and its finish faded. In need of extensive repairs and a repolish, the desk was ready for restoration to bring it back to life.

The repairs were extensive including repairs to the timber feet, the split in the dropdown and replacement of water damaged parts this followed by gentle cleaning of the beautiful leadlight replacing all the hardware and sanding before the all important finish.

Once the repairs were complete Stuart repolished and bought the gorgeous Australian Red Cedar back to it original glory

This restoration wasn’t just about fixing a piece of furniture – it was about preserving a piece of family history. The desk, once again sturdy and radiant, now stands ready for the next generation to create new
