Our Projects - Filley & Crane Co. Oak Roll Top

This is a turn of the century oak roll top manufactured by Filley & Crane Co. of Waterbury, CT.

This was an e-bay purchases and this image shows you what I started with.

Here we see the condition of the very back top of the desk.

Here we see the top partially stripped of the original finish.

This desk had beautiful raised panels all the way around.  In this image we have stripped one of the panels.

Here we have the desk fully restored.

A view of the finished desk open to display all the marvelous cubby holes and storage bins.

My grandparents' 1931 floor radio looks better than new thanks to these folks. Rich did a fabulous job of revitalizing the cabinetry, replacing missing trim, and making all the damages "disappear." He even added some speaker fabric and a light inside to make the dial light up again. He also spruced up a small S&H Green Stamps shelf I had. Price was reasonable, work is excellent. Rich is a great guy. I will definitely take all future projects there!
