“Having found two rather unusual bronzes that needed to be shown to the best advantage in my country apartment, I could not be more pleased with the plinths you made for them. - Not only are the proportions just right for the sculptures themselves, but the imaginative marbling on the plinths perfectly suits the background decoration in the rooms where they are placed.”
“Mr McPhee has been restoring and mending our furniture for nearly 15 years. We are very impressed with the quality of his workmanship - often repaired items come back better than when they were new! - Not only does he understand and love antique furniture, he has happily mended furniture the value of which has been sentimental rather than monetary. We have no hesitation in recommending his work.”
“My wife and I have known Richard McPhee for over ten years, during which time he has repaired and restored a good number of pieces of antique furniture for us. - We have no hesitation in recommending his work highly to others because it has always been well and sympathetically performed. Richard has also proved to be most responsive and easy to deal with.”
“We were very lucky to have discovered the services of Richard McPhee as a cabinet maker who specialises in the restoration of fine antique furniture. I first used Richard in the early 90s to restore a Georgian Partners desk in my office and have subsequently used him on frequent occasions. - He has always proved to be very sensitive and his attention to detail and quality of work is in my opinion second to none. We are very fortunate to have someone as skilled and talented as Richard living and working in Norwich.”
“It was a real relief to find someone with the slow-learnt, hard-won traditional skills of the real cabinet maker to whom we could entrust our antique furniture. - Mr McPhee has come up trumps with each item he has renovated for us, from replacing a wormy, broken leg on a Stuart carver chair with an exact replacement, to reviving a tottering William and Mary desk. Mr McPhee’s skill is traditional and is as good as the cabinet makers of the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries.”
