Often I get asked if there is a book on furniture care, repair, and conservation. Really the best response is to join GROOP other wised known as the Professional Refinishers Group. This group of individuals are all over the USA and overseas. The members are all professionals and range in age from their 30's to 60's. Some are professional conservators, restorers, makers, upholsters, violinist, and woodworkers. We as a groop are what we call family and all we want is to share information and ask questions amongst our groop and get answers. This is a support groop and secrets don't exist.
But if I had to recommend one book it would Furniture Care and Conservation by Robert F. McGiffin, Jr. Its a great book with a ton information. The methods in this book still are standards in the repair world. The photo below showcases the chapters in the book.
