My wife and I own a spectacular four poster bed and wanted the end posts cut down to a height that would allow us to watch our television which is mounted on the wall. It was a pretty tough task to cut it down and have it all work. When I went to pick up the finished product I was astounded at the workmanship. They had taken out the middle 4 feet of the poster, rejoined the top and bottom including cutting a piece of wood and turning it on a lathe to make it all fit together, refinished it to match it’s original finish to perfection and I’m just blown away. These men aren’t just your average furniture restoration or refinishing guys. These are old world craftsmen. Thank you Mr. And Mr. Fallani. It’s a pleasure to have done business with such gentlemen and such professional artisans.

Excellent work plus these guys have great Italian accents! Their work is pricey but for those pieces with high value it’s worth it.

I have allot of antiques, and Mauro is one of the best in Southern California. His work is perfection, a true artisan. Recently, he restored an old mahogany piano that had been in my husbands family. It is gorgeous, just look at the pictures provided… they tell the story. I am now sending a early 1800’s Dutch Marquetry desk to him, because they understand inlays and give individual attention to the different woods which allot of restorers do not do. Seriously, you can trust the high end antiques to them.

Great people great work! Fallani and sons is the best place to get your antiques restored. whoever says different is wrong. Mauro and Franco are two great professionals that know what there doing. They were very kind and not belligerent as someone says! I would recommend to all my family and friends to bring their antiques.

Are we talking about the same Fallani? They’re also listed under Fallani Restoration — and they only have two reviews. One of which is from a guy named«Mauro F» — LOL! The other review agreed with me — horrible work, destroyed the piece — totally incompetent. Brought in an antique piece. They damaged the wood, turning one scratch into THREE gouges. Original shallow scratch was made into bubbling mess as if the wood was burned. Had to take it to another restorer, who said they put a completely wrong material to fix the scratch. When we confronted the Fallani(father — Mauro and son — Franco), they were rude, beliigerent, and totally unprofessional. First, they pretended they didn’t remember us(ah — you must destroy people’s antiques every day not to remember!!) Then, they said they didn’t do it. Liar, liar, pants on fire. Then they blamed us for rushing them — they told us 3 weeks, then radio silence, we called in only to check. At first Franco said he wasn’t happy(that’s why he took so long), then he called us after six weeks, said he was then happy with his work. Wow, if this is the kind of «quality» they are happy with, only send them your job only if you hate the piece! ps — if you are a female, watch out, if you go into the workshop, the old dude will corner you semi creepily and attempt to sell you an «antique» piece all while you can smell his breath.

This chair has been in my husbands, moms attic, storage, and shed for 20−30+ years. It is a family heir loom that will never be forgotten or left behind. The Fallani’s(Franco & Mauro) did a wonderful, beautiful job on restoring this rocking chair my husband’s mom rocked him to sleep in. It is so important to keep our antiques alive and the Fallani’s make it happen. Thank you — Denise and Aaron Claude email if you’d like to see a pic —

I took a very beat up cedar chest into Mr Fallini and was so hapy how it turned out. I would have never restored it unless it had great sentinental value which it does. The before and after pictures are just amazing. I could not be more pleased with the finished product. Just a fantastic job!

I spent $ 400 for replacing a piece on a frame, it was painted a different color than the balance of the frame; was told 2 weeks and every two weeks thereafter for almost 8 weeks. The quality of the work is substandard; don’t waste your money!
