’ One of our clients from West Vancouver brought us an antique carved oak dining chair and we designed and hand
built the carved cak table and the two carved oak cabinets you see illustrated to match and complete their dining _

room and kitchen. All this work was hand finished with a total of seven different staining and polishing techniques
culminating with hand rubbing and hand waxing to obtain a beautiful antique lustre. | |
