Yuri transformed this walnut table from 1890 which was in rough shape. He brought it back to it’s original grandeur (maybe better) and added blocks and pads to the bottom so that it’s safe for our floors when we add or remove the leaves. This is NOT a ‘strip-and-dip’ kind of place; Everything is done by hand in time honored traditions.

Yuri from Pilsen Gallery Antiques recently repaired a family heirloom which had been badly damaged. My great-grandfathers oak secretary is now repaired and in beautiful condition. Yuri cares about what he does and his work reflects this. I highly recommend him and his company.

I had a small chest of drawers that had not been tended to over the years. A friend recommended Pilsen Gallery and I was not disappointed. In fact, I was extremely impressed with the work Yury did refinishing this piece. He stripped it down to the core and beautifully restored the wood to its original splendor. This is old-world craftsmanship at its best! Highly recommended!

This was the best furniture experience Ive had yet. Yury took this worn out table and made it BETTER than brand new. The quality is unbelievable. Wouldnt go to anyone else in Chicago. Thank you so much!

I hired this person thinking he was good but after experiencing his work. He turned out to be a big rip off. He riped me off on the price did poor work. Took him 3 months to do a job he never finished . He was so dishonest with me. All he wanted was to take my money. From my experience with dealing with this individual. I find to be dishonest very crooked, terrible business person. Think twice before you use this business. I got riped off and dont want to see the same thing happen to anyone else. Dont use this place. Im telling from my own experience. He needs no star on his professionalism. Was acting very helpful in the beginning. Took my kindness for weakness. After I payed in good faith. The true identity of this individual came out. Was not the good person that was claimed to be. Very crooked and unprofessional. Tried to intimidate me many times and lied by this person. No shame at all by this individual. Didnt even return my key to me. Thats how ugly and low. How unprofessional.

Did some refurbishing on dining chairs I had for a while. He went up and beyond, repairing few things I didnt even notice. I would say he was reasonably priced, great craftsmanship and very professional. I will be recommending him to my family and friends!

As a small local business, Pilsen Gallery Antiques exceeds their reputation. The quality of their fabrics, craftsmanship, and service is something rare to our time, but leads a legacy of their own. I love the family dynamic within the shop, and trust their creative knowledge when it comes to restoring valuable relics.

From refinishing or restoration of antiques and other pieces of furniture, to their upholstery services.We count on them for it all.FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY.Thank you PGA for your loyalty and commitment to excellence.Sue-Jolie Rioux, ASID, IIDA, IDCChicago, IL
