We’ve undergone some changes here at Renowned and are pleased to welcome the new owners, Aaron and Melissa. Aaron brings with him vast experience in all facets of furniture and cabinetmaking, from antiques to shopfitting (and plenty in between!). We are happy to say that all of the craftsmen have […]
