FURNITURE RESTORATION

Julian Smith, a traditionally trained French polisher, restores the finish on old and antique timber furniture to its former glory, using the traditional method.  He works to restore the original lustre while maintaining the patina that reflects the item's history. 

This restoration process is labour intensive, but produces an authentic, beautiful and warm result that highlights the colour and grain of the wood while maintaining it's history.

Julian has a long association with Roy's Antiques in Clifton Hill, restoring much of the magnificent antique timber furniture to be found there.
