Mid Century Modern Toronto Signature

REFINISHED MCM Russell Spanner Dining Table & 6 REUPHOLSTERED Chairs

$0.00

Defining pieces that make guests stop and stare

Space-age dining set by well-known Canadian designer Russell Spanner—rare collector item—Canadian Mid-Century Modern classic. The table top and chairs' seats look "floating." "A very exceptional design, being a mix of Prouve and Eames".

The set was not in good shape, and it took us a few months to refinish it. 
The table and chairs have been stripped, sanded, and stained walnut, and they look just like new. There are just minimal usage signs on the chairs' legs that could be seen on very close inspection.

Russell Spanner futuristic designs combined the sharp geometry of splayed and tapered legs and beveled wood edges with the organic look of natural surfaces, and the curved plywood chair backs recall the modernity of airplane wings.

Table L 59.5" x W 35.5" x H 29 7/8"; the middle butterfly leaf adds 18".

6 chairs were reupholstered in a luxurious orange wool mohair fabric. They are very comfortable.

Why Mid Century Modern Toronto

What makes RESTORED vintage Mid-Century Modern furniture different

01

Full Refinishing process

The striping, sanding, and oiling enables the grain to shine. No short cuts, no stain, we aim for natural wood look.

02

Seamless Veneer Surgery

We donor-harvest matching vintage veneer to ensure hidden, seamless repairs.

03

Reinforced Joinery

We fix all structural issues. Loose mortise-and-tenon joints need to be fully dismantled, scraped clean, and properly re-bonded. No wobbly chairs or tables at our store.

04

Transparent Condition

We provide honest, close up photos and videos in good lighting so you know exactly what you're buying.

Mid Century Modern Toronto

Defining pieces that make everyone ask: "Where did you get that beautiful vintage piece?"

What customers say

Real RESTORED vintage Mid-Century Modern furniture owners.

They are absolute experts. They took time to explain the refinishing process, answered every question I had, and treated the memories attached to the piece with real care. I didn't just get furniture back — I got something better than I left with.

Customer restoring a sentimental piece

My absolute favourite store for MCM furniture in the GTA. The best value for freshly restored pieces — full stop. I've looked everywhere.

Repeat customer

Greater Toronto Area

I bought a beautiful table without seeing it in person. Asta was precise — exact measurements, honest photos, every detail I needed. When it arrived, it was exactly what she described. Better, actually.

Remote buyer

How it works.

We source authentic mid-century pieces, check and fix any structural problems, strip with chemical stripper, sand with different grades, oil with Danish oil 5 times or more, waiting to dry and sanding each time. On average, it takes 10-14 days to finish the piece, but some might take even longer. Every piece undergoes rigorous quality checks before reaching your home. If reupholstery is required, it is done by one of a few professional upholsterers we work with.

Own the room, not just a chair

Stop settling for temporary furniture that lacks soul. Create a living space that feels cohesive, permanent, and entirely yours with iconic designs.

Questions, answered.

Yes. We provide detailed measurements, high-resolution photos & videos, and honest condition reports to ensure there are no surprises when your piece arrives. Do not hesitate to ask any questions prior to the purchase.

If the furniture is not what you expected, you can return it within 48 hours of purchase. If we are at fault, we will make it right. You will be refunded the cost of the piece less delivery cost and credit card fee of 4% (Shopify does not refund transaction fees if order is cancelled or refunded). Customized furniture is not returnable. The customer will be responsible for the returning the piece or cost of returning. The furniture is to be the same condition as it left our shop. If significant effort & time were required to prepare the shipment, a refund of up to 40% can be withheld to compensate.

Unlike quick-fix shops, we dismantle every loose joint and re-bond them with modern adhesives. This ensures a decade of structural stability.

We use period-correct donor wood to fix damaged veneer. These seamless repairs maintain the original grain flow for an invisible finish.
