Shop Visits
Being a one man shop, Ray wears many hats and may not be in the shop at all times. For this reason, visits to the shop are available by appointment only to ensure he is in at the time you
wish to visit. Several completed pieces are also available for viewing in the showroom.
Ray does not carry a "line" of furniture. Any period piece may be faithfully reproduced. You may have seen a piece that sold at auction, or one you may have seen on a recent visit to
a historic home or museum. Maybe you saw a picture in a book or magazine. Ray carries an extensive library of resource materials, and has taken many photographs of pieces held in private
collections. Even if you wish to enlarge a set of chairs you currently have, Ray enjoys working closely with each client to ensure they aquire the piece that until now was simply
unavailable.
