Very satisfying project on a pair of worthy original entry doors, done over the past few months. We are able to put them in the shop while the clients were traveling over the winter. Beautiful doors good for another 100 years!

Recently I came across this 1820's Dutch Gaming Table at an estate sale. A beautiful piece of marquetry work that was crying for a bit of restoration. The craftsmanship it took to create this table is amazing to me. I had a lot of fun figuring out the best way to bring it back and now I am calling it finished.

After nearly two years from the time these windows began restoration the newly restored glass is being reinstalled this week. We are honored to have participated in this project this year with the restoration of the frame at St Joseph Church here in Oil City. I'm so happy to see the glass returned to it's rightful place.
