A.H.M. Furniture Repair

 

Here is one of our current projects. This is a solid walnut buffet made by the Standard Table Company of Jamestown, NY. It is one piece of a complete set we are restoring. This set belonged to the owners mother and is complete with all the chairs.

3legb4.jpg (114103 bytes) Two of the legs had been broken off completely and re-glued very badly. The glue help but the pieces were not properly aligned when repaired. We re-broke the repair and realigned the joints for a invisible repair.
