There is a big variety of antique wood furniture at my grandparents house. Much of it is actually in very good shape although some of it shows its age. This furniture has been around for as long as I can remember, and has weathered three children and ten grandchildren. It's stood up rather well, and that might be because it was very well made, and was meant to last. Though not all furniture this age looks as good, there are many things you can do to preserve it.

There are many people who are always looking for a great piece of antique wood furniture. They scour shops and flea markets to get something they love. I can see why this might be a lot of fun but I haven't really had the time to do it myself just yet. The best deals are the ones you can find in flea markets, if you know anything about antique wood furniture, you can spot a bargain. What might look like a beat up old chair might be worth much more than the vendor is asking.

You have two choices if you find a beat up piece of antique wood furniture. You can pay someone to restore it or you can restore it yourself. It's a lot of work to do it yourself although ...
... it could be a lot of fun. I had an old table once that was coated with three layers of paint that needed to be removed. I worked long and hard on it, but I never got the paint off. The table is now in my dad's attic. This wasn't even a complicated piece, so I can see where more intricate pieces might need professional help.

You can bring your old antique wood furniture to an antique specialist. Many of them have employees that are trained to restore old pieces. I know there are many in my small area, so I would imagine you can find them almost anywhere. You can bring a worn piece of antique wood furniture in and bring it home looking like it is new. These people can also repair the pieces, and if something is missing, they can build a new part that looks so good you won't know the difference. They can also restore modern furniture that may have broken or if it just looks worn down.
