Saved my furniture. After movers damaged almost every single piece Jane came to the rescue. Professional, skilled, prompt and wonderfully personable. I was really glad to have found this business

Jane and Ravi are great! They helped me refinish two office tables and they look better than before. Hired them again to oil the rooftop furniture.

Im very happy that I hired Jane Henry Studios to repair a beautiful Biedermeier style dresser that I purchased for my wife recently. The dresser got chipped in several places when the people delivering it were careless as they carried it up a flight of stairs. Jane sent Stravy Hurst, whom she described as her best furniture repair specialist, to my apartment, and Stravy did a great job, so much so that, if you did not know where to look, you would not even be able to find the places where the dresser had been chipped. Stravy was a lot of fun to chat with while he worked. I have not met Jane Henry, but have enjoyed talking with her on the phone. I highly recommend this Studio.

A couple of years ago, Jane restored seven pieces of antique furniture for me. The pieces had serious issues and many people would have discarded them. She restored them to their original glory and finished them with a French wax that brought them to museum quality. They havent been polished in almost four years and yet look as if they were polished yesterday. I would highly recommend Jane, to anyone that has antique or quality furniture that is in need of repair. I have attached a picture of one of the pieces to give an idea of her craftsmanship.

My wooden canopy bed was damaged during a recent move. Jane was very good at getting me a quote quickly, and the numbers were very reasonable. She was able to come to my apartment for the repairs, and she was very professional and efficient. It only took 45 minutes for her to finish repairing a broken wooden canopy beam, and chip off my wooden bedpost. I am very pleased with the results. You can barely tell where the breaks were. I highly recommend using her for wooden furniture restoration, and would definitely contact her again if I need furniture repairs in the future!

I recently worked with Jane to restore a family heirloom that has been passed down for generations. I was very nervous about getting it fixed as restoration is out of my comfort zone. Jane was reliable, patient, and easy to work with. Her skill is indisputable and I look forward to working with her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Jane has a wonderful combination of artistry and expertise, generosity, and kindness. With her superb skills, I now have a beautifully restored antique painting and frame.

I found a charcoal drawing amongst some old family papers that really should have been framed. Jane did an incredible job of cleaning and restoring it. Also, considering the fact the I know next to nothing about this sort of thing, I really valued the fact that Didnt mention anything about money until she knew that I had the piece back, and was satisfied with the work. A true professional!

Jane did an incredible job restoring my great-grandmothers table. It had carvings, missing molding and chipped pieces, splotchy varnish- pretty beat up. She completely understood what I needed, discussed options and pricing, and got it back to me quickly, and it looks better than I could have imagined. I cant even fathom how she made it look so good- entire missing chipped pieces somehow seamlessly integrated back into the grain of the wood, you would never know it was ever missing. Its unreal, and I love it. Her delivery team was courteous and prompt.

I reached out to Jane to inquire about fixing a hinge in a cabinet at my elderly mothers apartment. I had been having a very hard time, quite surprisingly, finding a contractor willing to come to my mothers apartment to fix this. Jane came over, was very courteous to my mother, and did a very meticulous job in fixing the hinge. Im very grateful, as my mother had been wanting this fixed for a very long time.

I took what I knew was a big risk. I entrusted the repair of a damaged piece of expensive furniture to someone I had never met. The decision ended up being a wise one. Not only was the repair perfect and completed on time, the transportation of the piece to and from my apartment was handled smoothly. One final point: Jane Henry is obviously very honest. By accident her bill was paid twice (my fault) and she returned the overpayment quickly. I couldnt be happier with the outcome.

Jane is the absolute best at what she does. I have taken everything from precious antiques to vintage finds to her. She truly loves what she does and it comes through in her work. Jane always has her own ideas to bring to the table and makes the creative process much more fun. The end result is flawless.

So I broke a leg off of our dining room table to make it unstable and I was unable to fix it myself. A quick search found Jane, and she fixed it beautifully. She even arranged for pick up and delivery. We were so delighted that we followed up with three more pieces of furniture. With a cedar chest, Jane beautifully restored the carved decorations and refinished the entire piece, revealing the wood grain that had not been visible in eons. She restored a distressed leather table top, even repairing a deep cigarette burn. I am very happy with Jane s skill and imagination in repairing and restoring gilding, leather, wood carving, finishes and supporting structures.

Honest, talented, and business like, Jane Henry, has great sensitivity for the restoration of material culture especially gilding, lacquer and painted surfaces. Her historical knowledge compliments correct contemporary processes and methodology. She knows the importance of less is more. The Florian Papp Gallery and our clients have benefited through the years from her 5 star work and manner.

I contacted Jane from an art gallery in Buenos Aires about fixing a small surface scratch on the varnish of a painting a client had bought from us. She replied very quickly and was so helpful and friendly. I would definitely not hesitate to get in touch with her again.

Jane Henry is the best of the best, a Goddess who can fix anything, recreate and impossible missing part, or make something new so soulful and special it has the same presence and magic as a thousand year old masterpiece. A true artist, with an intuitive horse sense about what is right that cannot be beat!

Jane is, in a word, AMAZING. I work for a high net worth client, and Jane has come to our rescue on many occasions with meticulous repairs and restoration to fine furniture, mirrors, as well as the most random of fineries. I highly recommend Jane as the ultimate go to help care for you most precious pieces.

My experience with Jane Henry Studios was nothing short of simply fantastic. We needed to have two wooden tables sanded and lacquered and it couldnt have been easier with better results. Jane took them off our hands and returned them looking brand spanking new. Great experience from start to finish!

A few years ago, Jane Henry re-gilded the sculpted inset stone donor inscription dedicated to music lovers on the Naumburg Bandshell of Central Parks Concert Ground, at my instigation. She is lovely to work with and was most accommodating, very understanding, kind, wise, patient and helpful. I heartily recommend her work and her to others.

Was so seamless I almost forgot it ever occurred. I met with Jane at the site, visited once in the stodio, once to see the finished product, and it was back at my clients home. Doesnt get much better than that..

Jane Henry applied her considerable woodworking skills to solving a design flaw in our two wildly overpriced daybeds. She succeeded where three previous vendors had failed.Thank you, Jane.
