When to repair

When the dog chews the leg of your favourite kitchen chair, what do you do?

First, you don't panic - it can be fixed. Second - you don't throw the chair away and get a new one from some mass-market retailer - it can be fixed. Third - you don't go mad at the dog because it's not entirely his fault. Many years ago chairs were held together with rabbit skin glue, which your dog can smell & will think make a tasty snack!

Here at The Curious Cow, our experts will endeavour to make honest repairs that will last a lifetime, using traditional tools and tried & tested techniques - from fixing loose legs to scarfing in new wood and colour matching. We will try our best to return your item to a functional use without hiding the fact that we have made a repair (unless you want it fully restored)
