Progress on the Mahogany Sideboard, The sub-frame for the top/case has been reassembled and re-glued, all the structural cracks and cleaving veneers have been injected with glue and stabilized and new quality solid brass hardware has been ordered

A proper restoration is more than just making a piece look good again, I insist that my clients projects function properly and can be put back into active service.
Years of use and overloading required we carefully disassemble and rebuild all the drawers on this buffet, they'll work good as new when completed.
