The Old Woodworks is also your source for antique and period wood and metal knobs, pulls, hinges, and other hardware; reproduction and recycled screws, nails and other wood and metal fittings, genuine mother-of-pearl and bone inserts.

All repairs are done to the highest standards, using period correct methods and materials, and usually tools as well, suitable to the age of the piece being restored. I use thick saw-cut veneers, old style hot hide glue for binding and joining, old dyes and chemical colouring methods, hand-dovetail and mortice and tenon joinery, etc., etc. Having your treasured piece restored at The Old Woodworks ensures that it is done according to the most period correct methods to preserve and maximize the underlying value of the article.
