Why should you restore old furniture?

There are many benefits to restoring old furniture. One of said benefits is the reduced carbon footprint. It seems like everything today is made to throw away when the going gets tough. Most older furniture was built with a better quality than the furniture of today. This means that the restored furniture will last longer than modern furniture. Another benefit is the price. You can restore an older piece for a much lower price than buying an all-new piece. Want something different? No problem! Choose a new wood color or a new fabric.

What Makes Antique Furniture Worth Restoring?

As a rule, any piece of furniture in good condition that passes through two generations starts increasing in value. A generation can be loosely defined as 20 to 25 years.  So today in the 21st Century all of our parents furniture is beginning to increase in value and worth restoration if needed.

Furniture from our previous generations is worth restoring

Have you heard the term Retro  furniture Lately?  Furniture manufactures are trying to reproduce our parent’s furniture and calling it Retro. The truth is, this furniture will never be made again in the solid construction or materials our original parent’s furniture was.  As you can see all furniture from our previous generations is worth restoring.

I as rule will not restore any piece of furniture less than 15 years old as this is when  manufacturers began to  build furniture  with press boards,  mixed glues with  sawdust and inferior rag woods such as popular and rubber trees.  I have witnessed the entire furniture industry quality go down to a laughable  piece of junk that looks pretty on the outside but is fundamentally nothing more than firewood kindle.

So treasure the furniture of your previous family generations.  Restore it, Repair it, treat it with love.  There will never again be any furniture produced  with this  fine woodworking, design and  high end woods.
