We have trusted our antique furniture to John Hutchinson’s expert hands for over twenty years—and through at least four house moves. He has done beautiful repairs due to wear, breakage or misuse. There also have been several occasions when he waxed and polished fine pieces before a big party or a photo shoot. Perhaps his most challenging assignment was the restoration and preservation of two priceless pieces from a Spanish monastery dating from the late 1500s: the Spanish door in our Rose Valley home and the matching Spanish vestry table. He essentially re-built both pieces, along with a period-authentic wax finish, which brought them back to their original luster. John and his talented crew are hugely knowledgeable, considerate of our needs, and trustworthy with our family treasures. We simply cannot recommend them or their work more highly.
