apower Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Wondering if anyone here has had any work done on Heywood Wakefield furniture? We just came into a dining set but it needs refinishing. A quick google search didn't turn up anyone who specializes in just Heywood Wakefield (there are some people in Orange, CA and Maryland that just work on Heywood Wakefield), so I assume we will have to take it to a more generalized person. Would like to be able to get a few more matching pieces from the set, and are concerned about getting the Wheat stain correct so that future pieces will match reasonably. Does anyone have a recommendation and, even better, before and after pics of their Heywood Wakefield refinishing jobs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missjanel Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I haven't gotten around to refinshing any of my wheat pieces yet so I don't have any first hand experience but Travis @ Metro Modern on Milam said that he knew of a refinisher who could correctly achieve the Heywood wheat finsh. I would give him a call first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
