About the Business
Having visited the restoration workshops many times and had a number of items of furniture restored by Simon Gilboy's team of restorers, the retired naval commander arrived one day at the antique restoration workshop with a receipt from a well known auction house, it amounted to many thousands of pounds worth of antiques. I have bought these antiques for you. I want you to set up your own showroom.!
