Artistic Furniture Refinishing

unknown

Work was done very well, at a reasonable price, and in a short amount of time.

My overall experience with Ed Martel was pleasant and professional. He communicated with me well and made sure he knew what I wanted before he left with the furniture. I wanted to keep the character of the piece (like the chew marks from me teething on the leg - embarrassing, but true!) and the perfume bottle marks she left out for all of us kids to sample. The piece had lost some of its color over the years, and I wanted the richer hue from my memory restored. The mirror had some "spots" in it like old mirrors do, so I opted to replace the mirror. The chair's upholstery needed replacing as well, and he asked me to either choose a fabric and deliver it to him in a week or so or he could refer the finished chair to an upholsterer he knew. I decided to choose the fabric. Mr. Martel called me a few days into the project and said it was going well. He sent me some pictures of the work in progress to make sure the deeper hue was what I'd envisioned. In about another week, he called to tell me he was finished with the piece and sent a few pictures through email. I was so excited about receiving the furniture that I cancelled a previous appointment so he could deliver that afternoon! The work is flawless. The piece is beautiful. It feels like my great-grandma could sit at it again, daubing on her blush and spritzing her perfume. I absolutely, positively LOVE Artistic Furniture Refinishing and can't wait to find a reason to call them again!
