I used to do furniture restorations and for something the size of a console I would get about $300.00-$600 + materials.
thats nothing but a strait refinish of unpainted pieces. Scrollwork, veneer and breakage are more. I once had a small desk I wanted refinished. The business wanted $1100.00. Then i did it myself and that started me on the restoration track.
Table radios of course need a lot more work for that grain filled perfection. They are smaller so that is cheaper.
Lonnnnng story short, For a radio refinish I would probably go for $250 + materials. For a console it would be $350+
I had a guy that had a $100.00 cabinet but it was baaaaaad so I told him it was not worth it. Family heirloom speech and it got a $560.00 refinish. Now it is worth $250.00 lol
P.S. I am not a business so I do it cheaper. Your fantastic work is worth the price.
