Throughout our restoration process we are conscience of preserving the natural wood elements and that all design features remain intact. The cabinet goes through an extensive revitalization process to preserve and retain the hand craftsmanship of these exceptionally designed American cabinets. Using a multi-step sanding process, we carefully remove by hand all the layers of your great grandparent’s old dark mahogany stain, as well as all other repairs needed for these masterpieces. Once the cabinet reaches the bare wood stage, modern day stains and toners are used to highlight the natural wood grains.
