Finishes & Restoration
At Elite Designs Global Ltd, we specialise in the world’s finest finishes:
- French Polishing: Still regarded as the ultimate in luxury, creating a unique deep shine that enhances grain and character. Our modern French polishes are hard-wearing, heat resistant, and can be refreshed or repaired over time.
- Specialist Lacquers: Available in clear or colour finishes, including Farrow & Ball and Designers Guild shades, applied with professional AC two-pack lacquer methods for long-lasting durability.
- Note on Oil Finishes: We strongly advise against oil finishes for table tops and high-use furniture, as they provide little protection and wear quickly. Many of our clients come to us after damage from these inferior finishes.
⚠️ We offer a full UK collection & delivery service for French polishing and restoration projects.
