What our customers are saying
Stan
We asked for two 18th century chairs to be restored and were absolutely delighted by the craftsmanship and care to protect obvious use. From initial contact, collection and delivery coupled with Mike's personality and explanations as to what he had undertaken left us feeling as though we would continue with other furniture and give a strong endorsement and recommendation to this highly skilled, efficient and quality service.
Vicky
My mother’s Edwardian dressing table had been stored in a garage for many years and was desperately in need of extensive repair work. Isabelle and Mike were great to deal with from the outset. They really understood the sentimental value of this piece of furniture and the quality of the workmanship is first class. It’s finally on display in our bedroom and looks stunning! My mother would be over the moon!
Chris & Joan
A very big thank you for the tremendous transformation of our little hall table, it's hardly recognisable from the little table that has been in our side hallway for many years. Your workmanship is first class and we appreciate the additions you have made to our table to make it more sturdy and to last for many years to come. Thank you again and we would have no hesitation in recommending your company, Artabelle Furniture Restoration.
