My parents bought a dining room table and six chairs here around 1989. It was used constantly for regular family meals, large dinner parties, potlucks, we did homework on it, did art projects on it, etc. until 2018 when they downsized and I put it in my then apartment for my family. It moved a few towns over with us to our new house. We are still eating at it. My daughter painted part of the chair back with acrylic paint in hot pink. I sanded it off and it’s basically unnoticeable. We have friends over, place huge Amazon packages on the table, eat all meals there, etc. We are just now thinking of getting a new one after one chair rung broke (our damage and mishandling 100%) and our small kitchen/dining room is basically built for a rectangular style table. We can’t decide what to buy. We should probably just drive to CT and purchase a new set here!

It was a walk down memory lane from when I was 19 and fell in love with Hitchcock furniture. So happy it is making a comeback!

My husband and I loved this store. We purchased several pieces in addition to chairs which have all held up very well. Real quality, beautiful furniture at reasonable prices. Now have an antique Hitchcock table that was purchased at the Brimfield Fair and would like to get it refinished. So happy to learn that the store has re-opened!

What great news! It must be 12-13 years ago that I learned of the closure and I was very sad. Congratulations and much success to the "new" ownership.

Questions & Answers

I have a flame stitch sofa , I bought many years ago , at Hit hcock. I wondered if , by any chance, you have old back stock on fabric. Thank you Candice Bonelli

Unfortunately, we are no longer getting our upholstery from the same company, so we do not have access to the old fabrics. You could check with a local upholsterer to see if s/he can get the same fabric.

Who repairs Hitchcock chairs?

Hitchcock has their own restoration division in house. Operates at the Riverton factory under Still River Antiques.

Can you fix a chair that is now worn after many years?

Barbara - We would be glad to do that for you! We have a full restoration shop on-site in our Riverton location. The result of our exclusive restoration service is a chair that is as close to a new chair as we can make it. In fact, all of the finish work - staining, painting, and stenciling - is done in the same place as the work on our new chairs. You can bring your chair to us in person or, if you live too far away, you can ship it to us.

I have Hitchcock dining room chairs which are starting to become unglued. Where can I have them repaired? I live in Marlborough,Ma.

If they only need to be reglued, you can take them to a local, reputable furniture restoration company. If they need anything more, you should bring them us at our facility in Riverton, CT. We have a full restoration shop on-site.

I believe the Hitchcock Chair store will redo them for you if you want them to.
