Does anyone know of a shop which will restore a "boule" table, preferably in Southern Ontario?
I'm not immediately sure of the table's exact history, other than that it would be worthwhile to have it restored. It's not in terrible condition. The brass inlay is coming up in some places and the tortoiseshell is coming off as well.
The furniture appraiser said it would be impossible to send the table back to France to have it done as the table contains tortoiseshell which is illegal to ship across international boarders. I can't believe it would be impossible to get this type of work done in Canada.
So, any recommendations?
Regards,
Robin
