MidCentury Armchair repair
Movers snapped the lower portion of one bentwood leg clean off an armchair by a named designer. It cracked diagonally close to the upholstery. Any suggestions on where to get this repaired/restored? $$$ no object as the movers insurance will be paying.

Try Rosini and Sons, they do high end restorations and repairs.
Thanks for the comments. Bought the pieces (a pair of the chairs) at a pier antiques show, so the Grand Ave route sounds like the right one.
Is it vintage? I broke the pin in a Nogucchi table and the manufacturer fixed it at a very reasonable cost. Most people stand behind their products for much longer than you would think and the makers of the vintage pieces know that their collectors are as passionate as they are. I have taken several vinatge items back to their manufacturers for repairs and restoration. Even the snobs up at Hermes restored a 50’s handbag.
