When we inherited this Davenport it was in a really sorry state and we weren’t sure what to do with it. Selwyn collected it and worked his magic, and was so genuinely enthusiastic about every little detail. We’re delighted with it - I would highly recommend Pilgrim’s Progress for any furniture restoration projects!
I would highly recommend Selwyn and Pilgrim's Progress. I inherited a broken antique clock from my uncle and Selwyn has restored it beautifully. He did a tremendous job on the wooden casing and arranged for the mechanism to be repaired by an expert elsewhere. I now have an accurate, reliable and beautiful timepiece with real sentimental value. Selwyn is a true gentleman with an evident love for his craft who offers fantastic customer service. The store itself is also an intriguing and unique place to explore if you are interested in antiques. Definitely 5/5
thrilled to share my experience with Selwyn, who recently restored my dining table and chairs. From start to finish, Selwyn’s service was impeccable. He collected and dropped off the furniture, ensuring that nothing was too much to ask. His talent and clear knowledge in his craft are evident in the stunning final result. My dining set looks better than I could have ever imagined. I would not hesitate to use his services again. Highly recommended! Added before & afters!
I looked for new bedroom chests of drawers to match my wardrobes for over a year, but I couldn’t find any as well made as mine, which, being 25 years old were a bit battered! So I decided to have the 3 chests refurbished In Pilgrims Progress. Selwyn did a fantastic job, the chests of drawers look brand new and will certainly last another 25years. Thank you Selwyn, the price was very reasonable and much, much less than buying new chests of inferior quality.
We found just what we wanted at a very reasonable price; many thanks to Selwyn and his team for the wonderfully restored library drawers and for a most enjoyable visit to your studios.
I had a couple of jobs done by the team at Pilgrims. Very pleased with both! For instance, my duet piano stool was expertly recovered and the woodwork revitalised. The work was done to a very high standard and price was very competitive.
Having seen it on his website I ordered a Victorian pitch pine desk from Selwyn in the middle of the last lockdown and he agreed to hold it for me until lockdown was over. After a bit of a delay which was my "fault" as the room it was going into wasn't ready the desk arrived today with Selwyn having driven it from Liverpool to north Wales. I'm delighted with the desk and the finish and extremely pleased that I found it - nothing seemed to be too much of a problem for him. In fact I already have plans to visit the showroom to see what else he has that isn't on the website - I can already feel the pain in my wallet (not that he is expensive, just that I know I'll want more bits) lol.
Wow! What a fascinating place this is. I've been a few times now and purchased several pieces of furniture, all of which had been restored to their original glory. Selwyn the owner, is incredibly knowledgeable and always happy to advise and show you around. They even do custom restoration and painting which was great as I wanted something quite unique with an item I had bought. Every time time I decorate a room in my house I always pay a visit Pilgrims Progress to see what I can get.
