Restoration project

Hi all

I thought I'd share this article on one of the more interesting pieces of furniture I've been lucky enough to work on.

Thanks for the kind words guys, it felt like a real privilege to be working on this piece.

I love seeing this monumental kind of carving and combined with the history your project really ticks the boxes for me
I thought my Nephew in law was pretty good (some of his work is on V Putins official desk) but all his stuff is "new" - the added element of the historical research and all that involves makes that bed "Super Special"

I have to say its easy to forget how lucky I am to be working on pieces of furniture with this much history, but the research we did really helped me feel like I was actually touching the past with this piece.
i may have asked you this before, but does your Nephew have a website, I'd love to see some of his work?

If he does I ain't been given a link!
I will ask... he is on Farcebook though as Peter Rayment .. might have something to look at there...
