Traditional French Polishing

French polishing is a traditional wood finishing technique that involves applying several very thin coats of shellac to produce a stunning, high-gloss finish. It is a great way to bring out the natural wood grain and make any item of furniture truly shine. So, if you have a wooden table, sideboard, or cabinet that could do with a refresh, get in touch.

Careful Cleaning & Stripping

Before applying your new finish, we will need to carefully prepare the surface of your piece. This typically involves cleaning and sanding the wooden surface to remove any existing polish and any damage, and bring out the natural wood grain. We always work carefully to enhance the existing beauty of your piece without damaging it in any way.

Striking Finishes

French polishing results in a striking, timeless finish that can help restore any furniture item to its best. Whether you have an antique cabinet that’s seen better days, or a modern shelving unit that needs a refresh, we can help. Get in touch to arrange an inspection of your item and receive expert advice on how to bring your furniture to life.
