Quality wooden furniture is expensive to replace, so regular maintenance pays off in the long-run.

One way to ensure your antiques are both beautiful and well-protected is to have French polishing. This technique is particularly effective on pricier woods like mahogany or walnut. It is also regularly used on musical instruments like pianos and harps.

The name ‘French polishing’ refers to the process rather than the type of polish (shellac) which is used. Since it also removes scratches, watermarks and, in some cases, dents and gouges, it can make your furniture look like new.

French-polished shellac is prized for its durability and high-gloss finish. Since it dries quickly and is non-toxic, it’s excellent for providing a seal against moisture. It’s simple to repair when required, especially compared to more modern methods, which means it’s a low risk technique.
