Best of Boston Home 2011: Restoration Antiques

The Barn at 17

The Barn at 17’s warehouse and restoration workshop hold a bounty of treasures, ranging from late-18th-century armoires to mid-20th-century credenzas. In addition, Dan McAuliffe, who co-owns the company with Jerry Freeman, can repair damaged pieces   that most other dealers would leave for dead. A late-19th-century French boillait card table that he found in ruins, for example, now glistens in the showroom, its green leather top and intricate gold tooling fully restored. And if your grandmother’s bureau is suffering from years of neglect, McAuliffe can bring it back to life in just a few weeks.
