Get a Second Opinion. If you�re unsure about a piece and it�s expensive, get a second opinion from a friend who is knowledgeable about antiques or whose taste you trust. Ask the dealer if he or she will hold the piece for you until you return. If not, ask yourself how you�d feel if the piece weren�t there when you got back. If the heartbreak you�d experience would exceed the disappointment you�d feel paying more for the piece than it�s worth, buy it.

START WITH EASY FIXES. When you begin repairing antique furniture, it's smart to learn with simple projects. For example, a loose stretcher on a chair is a good place to start. Broken hardware can also be an ideal project for a beginner. If you're going to replace it with identical reproduction hardware, the repair can take just a few minutes. Always try to learn with "reversible repairs." This means a process that can be reversed with little or no damage to the furniture. You can always remove a screw if its head looks too new against older wood. But, if you've pried wood veneer off a table and--too late--realized that the veneer was important, it can be impossible to restore it.
