FAQ
-
We specialize in mid-century modern furniture from the 1950s-1970s. While we occasionally work on pieces from other eras with similar construction methods, we don't typically restore antiques or contemporary furniture. Our expertise is particularly focused on iconic Danish and American mid-century designers.
-
Refinishing and repair projects generally take 4-6 weeks from drop-off to completion, while upholstery projects typically require 8-10 weeks. These timelines may extend during busy periods, which is why most upholstery projects are booked 3+ months in advance. We'll provide specific timeline estimates with your project quote.
-
We don't offer delivery services, but we can recommend local furniture movers who specialize in handling vintage pieces. All drop-offs and pickups happen at our Phinney Ridge workshop in Seattle by appointment only.
-
Our pricing is based on the specific requirements of each piece. For upholstery, costs include labor (based on the piece's complexity), plus materials like fabric, foam, and hardware. For refinishing, pricing depends on the extent of repair needed, size, and finish type. We require a 25% deposit to book your project, another 25% at drop-off, with the remaining balance due upon completion.
-
We work with several fabric suppliers and can help you select options that match your vision and budget. You're also welcome to provide your own fabric. If you're considering this route, please consult with us first about yardage requirements and fabric suitability for your specific piece.
-
We prioritize methods that honor the original character of each piece while ensuring long-term durability. Depending on the piece and your preferences, we offer traditional lacquer finishes, hard wax oil finishes, or specialty finishing techniques. We focus on preserving original veneer whenever possible and use period-appropriate materials and techniques.
