People wish to have antique trunks restored or refinished for many different reasons.  Some
because it is a family treasure or perhaps because they are simply beautiful antiques. They are
perfect for storing those special little things that come into our lives such as "kid pictures", baby
items, first baseball hat, military items, or most any sentimental item or collectible you wish. Just
open it up and set something in now and again.  Your antique trunk will one day hold a reflection of
life lived and your decision to restore and use your antique trunk regarded as a most wise and
thoughtful gesture.
I do my best to provide your family such a heirloom trunk.

Our Antique Trunk Restoration Services
1. I evaluate your antique trunk to determine current condition. This can be done via photo's, email,
phone, or face to face if feasible. It always helps if we can see the trunk in question so photo's are
great when at all possible.  If not, numerous pictures of examples can be provided to determine the
type of antique trunk you have and then you can provide details of the condition.

2. Once I understand the trunk in question (don't be shy, I've seen the worse), we discuss how it is
to be restored if you seek original or refinished to suit your personal tastes.  I  accommodate your
requests whenever possible and can lend suggestions if needed.

3. I provide an estimate based on our discussion and you provide the antique trunk if agreeable.

4. Rust and odors are removed and we can work toward saving any external coverings or remove
them if you desire to expose the underlying wood. Structural repairs are made if needed and
missing hardware replaced with exact same type when possible or closest match. Plain tin will be
repaired or replaced and finished in the proper manner based on our discussion. Embossed tin can
repainted as original or in the manner you desire or removed if not salvageable to expose the
underlying wood.

5. The exterior wood, slats and or trunk body, will be finished using only quality materials. I offer a
variety of stains, natural oils, and finishes depending on the look you seek.

6. If desired, the original interior lining will be removed and the inside wood refinished or relined
with a wallpaper covering and trim. Fabric can also be installed should that be your preference.

7. We can fit your trunk with a tray if needed, rebuild inside compartments, shadow boxes, a trunk
stand, and always willing to entertain your creative suggestions.

8.  Our goal is to offer you both original antique trunk restoration services as well as custom antique
trunk refinishing to suit your personal tastes or decor needs.

9. Turn around time is generally less than 1 month.

10. A beautiful antique trunk is delivered to your home.

Pricing:  -  Typically ranges from $300-$500 bottom line. Various requests requiring
additional materials perhaps a little more, simple refinishing to make the old trunk nice
again, maybe a little less. We offer convenient payment options as well.

unique rare design or a national treasure. However, we understand it may carry priceless  
memories from the past, and working together, into the future.
