I have a favorite chair. It's a rocker which I remember as a young child. Later when I was at the…read moreUniversity of Texas in Austin it was my study chair which helped see me through my undergraduate and graduate degrees. It moved with me from Texas to Minnesota and I am sitting in it right now as I write this review. It has been reupholstered numerous times and this time after interviewing several potential candidates I chose Anthony's. They had refinished some other pieces for me and seemed to be in tune with what I wanted. As Dawn who I worked with us said "you want this to be the rock star of the room" which is exactly what I wanted. My wife and I spent a lot of time with Dawn finding the right fabric. When we finally decided it only took a couple of weeks before I was reunited with my chair. They did a beautiful job and I am extremely happy. The workmanship is fantastic. I highly recommend Anthony's for furniture restoration.

The owner communicated with me during the entire rebuild process (which took about 1 month). Tracy recommended the "rebuild" and it was well worth the wait!

He was able to patch the door frame from 4 pieces back into one and it looks great- Better than it did before, actually. It used to have brackets holding a few pieces together, leading me believe it had been damaged before. I needed a replacement piece of curved glass as the original was shattered in the move. While the door frame only took maybe 2-3 weeks for completion, I gave Tracey a few months to search for a curved glass manufacturer. One person he thought may have been able to ended up not being able to and he was unable to find anyone else in the local area to do it which is absolutely at no fault of his own. I was able to find a specialty glass manufacturer who does replacement curved glass for curio cabinets in FL so it all worked out. It was reasonable pricing for the door frame repair with a good turnaround time. If I ever have damaged furniture I would bring it back to Berger's in a heartbeat.

From the moment…read morewe walked in with our well-loved, definitely well worn rocking chair to the day we left with the beautifully restored family heirloom, we were treated with kindness and given ample options and time to make the decisions we needed as a family to make sure our chair was restored with the respect it deserved. Only a true craftsman can take a piece as old as this was and as worn as this and take 3 people's input and visions and turn that into a work of art able to take your breath away. This chair is at least 50 years old and from New England. That is all we know. It was passed down in the family. If anyone knows of where it might have came from please contact us!
