Throughout the family history, Abbey Antiques and Furnishings have gained years of experience and knowledge, and have the highest understanding of the Furniture profession. With this knowledge they have paved the way for future family generations to continue in the story of its success.

The many skills which are needed to complete each piece of furniture have been handed down for more than a century at Abbey Antiques. Today, gifted young craftsmen are trained under the company’s own training scheme, and thus the skills of the older master craftsmen are passed
on to the younger generations.

Attention to detail...

Meticulous attention to detail is evident in each piece of furniture. Veneers and timbers are carefully chosen, however long the search for the perfect piece. Specialised brassware is cast to ensure that even the smallest detail on a handle or a castor is equal to the best of the 18th Century. Attention to detail is the company’s watchword, with elaborate inlays of exotic woods featuring on many pieces, from extensive stocks of rare materials.

Services include French polishing, sanding and stripping by hand, glazing, woodturning, marquetry, inlays, upholstery, table/desk leathering and gilding. From antique to modern furniture we can restore/repair and bring your furniture back to life!
