Don did a wonderful job on an old antique Brunswick phonograph cabinet. There was some wooden shelves and supports that needed to be rebuilt and at 100+ years old it needed a little refinishing. The color came out great and it was a joy talking with him about the project.

I can't recommend Old Virginia Woodworking enough! Quality craftsmanship, attention to detail, and excellent customer service! I am renovating an old 1904 schoolhouse, and wanted a telephone niche made, like the old Sears Roebuck houses had. I talked with Don, sent some pictures of what I was looking for, he came up with the design, and the finished product is gorgeous! Just what I was looking for! I am thrilled with the finished niche! Don takes the art of woodworking very seriously, and his work is flawless! Highly recommend!

I trusted Don with two very special items in my household. The first being a walnut desk that my dad made in his high school shop class (1970) that had been totally wrecked in a recent move. The movers somehow put about 10 screw holes into the top of the desk, scraping it terribly and losing some piece that allows the drawers to be affixed to the top. Don made it so that you cant even tell there were bug ragged screw holes in top and i think the desk is even more structurally sound than ever! The finish is buttery smooth but Don was sure to leave the markings on the bottom that my dad made while building this piece 50 years ago. The second item was an antique wall clock (c. 1890s) that has been in the family for atleast 3 generations. The clock lived in attics and closets and storage for the last 30 years and was in rough shape. Don made it look period-authentic and fresh, fixing the face and resetting it, hydrating and refinishing the cabinet, cleaning the face and repainting the hands and even ordering and installing a new glass for the face. My dad was incredibly touched to see both pieces and was incredibly impressed with the work. Don is a master at his craft and I will definitely be using his services again!

Wanted to share my wonderful blessing with everyone. My 90-yr old Mom was thrilled with the color and workmanship of the transformation done to her 40-yr old captains chairs for her kitchen set. She is so very pleased and wants everyone to know what a professional job Mr. Don does. Please check out his website and let him take your family treasures and lovingly transform them into family heirlooms again. God has truly blessed this man with a wonderful talent.Thank you again.
