I started working with him after that," says the younger Dziedzic, who has built numerous upholstered pieces, 4ncluding three minister‘s chairs for the Trafalgar Presbyterian Church. Rescuing those timeâ€"worn treaâ€" sures takes time, admits Dziedzic. "My young son once said to me: ‘Dad, why do old people have such neat things?" I think neat things are still available but with today‘s fast pace, speed does not allow the attenâ€" tion to detail present in older furâ€" nishings. I believe people still want neat things, but the piece has to be made to last for generations, and it has to be affordable," he says.

Aged wing chairs, sofas, and other upholstered treasures come back to life under his careful ministrations, even items that have been enjoyed for two centuries.
