Services & Process

Manzo handles antique furniture, reproduction pieces, reupholstery, and structural furniture repair, covering the full lifecycle of a piece from acquisition to restoration. Furniture repair at this level often means addressing loose mortise-and-tenon joints, refinishing wood surfaces, replacing missing hardware, and correcting structural damage that would make reupholstery pointless without fixing first. Reupholstery on antique and reproduction pieces requires careful material selection since the wrong fabric can undermine the authenticity of a period-appropriate piece. The antique sales side also means the shop has a trained eye for spotting quality in older furniture and knowing which pieces are worth investing in.

Collectors and interior designers from Edmond, Norman, and beyond make the trip to OKC for the shop's combination of inventory and hands-on services.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can antique furniture be reupholstered without losing its value?
Done correctly with period-appropriate materials and techniques, reupholstery can preserve or even enhance an antique's value. Using the wrong fabric or modern construction methods on a valuable piece can reduce its appeal to collectors, which is why working with someone who understands antiques specifically is important.
What's the difference between antique restoration and reproduction furniture?
Antique restoration involves repairing and refreshing original period pieces, while reproduction furniture is newly made but styled to look like historical designs. Both have their place, and shops like Manzo work with both, giving customers options depending on whether authenticity or affordability is the priority.
Can you repair furniture that has structural damage, not just worn fabric?
Structural repairs are often the first step before any reupholstery work begins. Loose joints, broken legs, and damaged frames need to be addressed so the finished piece is solid and safe to use. A shop that handles both repair and reupholstery can manage the whole process without you having to coordinate multiple vendors.
How do you choose the right fabric for an antique piece?
The goal is usually to select something that looks historically appropriate without necessarily being a museum-grade reproduction. Your upholsterer should be able to guide you toward fabrics in period-appropriate styles, like tapestries, velvets, or woven patterns, that complement the piece's age and style without looking out of place.
Do you buy antique furniture, or only sell and restore it?
Many antique shops that also do restoration work will purchase pieces outright or help facilitate sales. It's worth calling Manzo at (405) 314-5402 directly to ask about their current buying interest, since it varies based on inventory and what they're looking for at any given time.
How can I tell if an old piece of furniture is worth restoring?
The key factors are the quality of the original construction, the condition of the frame, and the piece's overall character. Solid wood frames, hand-cut dovetail joints, and quality original hardware are good signs that a piece is worth investing in. A shop with antique expertise can give you an honest assessment quickly.
