Old furniture and objects possess a beauty and charm that can enhance a room and bring pleasure to their owners. The quality of the materials and craftsmanship make such pieces far more hardwearing than any piece of furniture made more recently. Learn how to restore old furniture which you may already own, or look out for new pieces in flea markets. You may even discover quality pieces in a skip when a house is being redecorated. Furniture Restoration and Renovation shows you how to transform old furniture back into beautiful and functional objects. The first section lists basic materials and tools and shows how to use them. The second section discusses the different varieties of wood and explains the properties of each. Next, proven methods for wood renovation and restoration are explained. The final two sections are clear step-by-step projects on renovation and restoration to show how the techniques are applied in practice.
