Hailey-Thomas Faux Bamboo Lacquered Table & chairs

We initially went to Raleigh Woodworks for lacquering antique chairs ahead of the Thanksgiving holiday. We were very impressed with their warehouse and ended up finding the perfect table within their shop to go with our chairs! We purchased the table and they repaired the fretwork, and lacquered the table and chairs. They did a phenomenal job and were so communicative and helpful throughout the entire process. They also made sure to have our pieces done ahead of the holiday week. We will definitely be coming to them in the future for more projects!
