They are not brand new. We are basically die hard collectors of Mid century, Danish modern, Industrial/Re-purposed design, vintage advertising, petroliana gas/oil and anything odd or unique. It is our passion and we love what we do.

We are always on the hunt! Our primary business is an auto detail/auto body shop which we have owned and operated since 1994. So when we started collecting Mid Century design in 2003 we already had all the tools needed for restoration- repair and refinishing experience, pro spraying equipment/tools, hot steam extractors, cleaners, odor removal treatments etc.

We use all pro grade materials like M. Campbell, Mohawk and top shelf tung oil for wood.

We use R-M Diamont and Dupont auto finishes for metal and fiberglass. We refinish to the original specs of each piece.

For example, if a piece was sprayed with a lacquer gloss finish or a hand rubbed tung oil finish that is how we do it. When we refinish we maintain the original integrity of the finish as the creator/designer would have intended it to be when it came off the shrowroom floor. If a piece is in excellent vintage condition we leave it alone. What we don't do we send out to our specialists- upholstery, caning/rattan, metal work/welding, specialty wood repair/cabinetry. The craft people we use are all experts in their fields- 20 yrs. If we would not put a piece in our home we won't sell it to you!
