Refinish, Revive and Restore Antique Furniture

Rachel Sycamore has been making, restoring and conserving furniture since 1995, bringing old and forgotten pieces back to their former glory with care and attention to detail. Whether you have a table with water marks, a chest of drawers with parts missing, or a chair in pieces, Rach​el is able to piece things back together, make new parts and revive the finish back to full lustre. Note: despite her surname, Sycamore, Rachel works with other woods!                  You can send an enquiry via the contact form for a quotation.
