Extensive Repair Work To Broken Jacobean Turned Chair Posts and Legs c1920

George from Ingleside brought in his dad's old chairs in a large sack, which were on their way to the tip if they could not be restored and saved. I suggested we try and retain the existing finish but George explained they needed to match their oak dining table or to the tip they go. Faced with the decision of seeing them go to the tip or performing a complete transformation I chose the latter.
