Tips On antique western furniture
LARGER REPAIRS. Before tackling a large repair, especially one that's going to be prominent when the furniture is displayed, be sure that you've practiced on easier pieces. If you're restoring veneer or inlay, or even paint or varnish, experiment with several less valuable pieces first. Also, check your public library or bookstores for manuals that explain construction and repair of the kind of furniture you own. Many of them provide useful tips. Above all, learn all that you can before you start any repair, particularly if the furniture has sentimental value. Start with easy fixes, and practice to build your knowledge and confidence before attempting big or tricky repairs. No antique furniture will look "like new" again, and in most cases, it shouldn't. But, if you treat your antiques well, they will become more valuable each year, and be treasured by each generation that owns them.
