Wooten Antieks, owned and operated by Jo Jones and Wade Wooten, has been selling painted furniture to the trade for over 20 years. Wooten's trademark painted finishing technique grew from Wade's experience restoring original painted finishes on antique furniture pieces that Jo found and imported from Europe, as well as pieces he restored for other dealers and collectors.
The majority of our pieces are replicas of original antiques we have found and are fabricated in The Czech Republic and Central Europe, then painted in our warehouse in Round Rock, Texas just outside of Austin. Since all items in the Wooten Antieks collection are handcrafted, they vary in finish, styling, coloration and size from others you have seen or received.
We specialize in store fixtures, large display cases, and other pieces that lend themselves to displays in stores as well as the home. To feed our addiction to antiques, we still import a small number of old pieces, restore and finish them with our painted finish.
All solid wood products are subject to shrinkage, warping and seasoned cracks over time and will experience normal seasoning. Please remember that these occurrences are non-structural and will not affect the durability of the piece.
In most cases any variance will enhance the beauty of the piece, giving it a cherished heirloom appearance. Variances in wooden finishes, including worn edges, uneven planks, dents, scratches and nicks, are considered a natural characteristic of the items' unique handcrafted charm and beauty. Given minimal care, Wooten Antieks products will provide many years of use.
