From Raymond Burkett Restorations
After leaving work at the Smithsonian Institution in 1990, I opened my own furniture, restoration business. I repair most any types of broken wooden furniture, do a lot of wood refinishing, reweave chair seats, such as hand woven cane, sheeting cane, rush, splint, wicker, rattan, and Danish Modern cord. I also reupholster furniture, as long as it’s not too large for my facility. I can restore smaller decorative art items like little statuettes, carved wooden pieces, electric lamps, etc. I’m pretty handy and have gained a lot of knowledge gained from decades of experience. So I can repair or restore most any interior domestic item. I also provide pick up and delivery service for a fee.
