Registration required

Dear "shedders"

Have you ever wonder how to restore some old furniture or just improve a new piece ? If yes, this is for you.

We are extremely fortunate to have Peter Bolton, who has been restoring furniture for many years to share his stories and experiences. Peter used to run Subiaco Antique shop for many years.  This should be a fun session with lots of time for your Q&A.

A bit about Peter: After leaving school Peter studied at High Wycombe College of Technology. His three year course involved Furniture Manufacturing ; Furniture finishing and polishing, Upholstery techniques, Antique and Modern, as well as  the history of Antique Furniture including French Polishing, staining and re-finishing.

Arriving in Australia 46 years ago Petr was keen to get involved with the Antique Business which was thriving at the time. He worked at an Antique shop in Subiaco; he's lost count of how many pieces he has restored over the years! Peter is keen to share his knowledge and experience doing Antique Furniture Restoration.

He particularly enjoys helping people restore  sentimental value pieces of Antique Furniture.
