Luciano was on time for each appt. that I made with him - he was honorable with regards to his estimate - his work was outstanding and based on the results of his first job with me - I have scheduled to have more work done with him - I would highly recommend his work and his work methods - as I work myself - he is amenable to my schedule and works his around mine but in each case - has kept his word - VERY important in this type of business.

Luciano did a great job on my dining table.
He did everything he promised and my table now is in perfect condition.. I'll definitely use him again.

DETAILS
General Info
Master Craftsman Luciano Colella has acquired an intense passion and talent for the art of restoration and gilding handed down from his father. Vincenzo Colella, a skillful antique restorer for over 10 years. Luciano refined his knowledge and skills as a student at The School of Art and Restoration in Bari, Italy. After gathering significant working knowledge in the well-known artisan shops of Puglia and Piemonte, he opened his own in Polignano a mare BA in 1996, his province of origin, where he is considered one of the best in the art of restoration, gold leafing, engraving, carving and inlaying. We can deal with most problems found during furniture restoration or furniture refinishing, This could include an unstable structure, worn drawer runners, scratches missing sections of veneer. Always keeping in mind the integrity of restored piece of furniture, whether it be a valuable period piece or a modern piece. We always take in account how the piece was original constructed and it being integral, not over-restore. We prefer to retain as much of the original during any furniture restoration project instead of reconstructing or replacing, however, new components can be made and matched to the original. We also specialise in traditional French polishing using much the same process and materials used 200 years ago. If your piece of furniture has a damaged upholstery, we also provide a complete service of re-upholstery on both modern and period furniture, armchairs, dining chairs, in leather and fabric.
