From as-found to finished
Every piece starts life in its as-found condition, aged finish, worn hardware, joints that have loosened over the decades. Once ordered, it's structurally repaired and refinished by hand in our Auckland workshop until it's ready for another few decades in a modern home.
New Zealand makers
Many of the pieces we restore were built decades ago by New Zealand's own furniture makers, in solid native timber, to a standard rarely made new today. Restoring them keeps a part of that history in use.
