My
grandfather used to say that in all trades somebody has to
be the best.
Bob
Levey fits the bill and in my opinion he is the best craftsman
in my trade I have met and born in this country.
He
came to me as a pupil over three years ago with many years
of background in the Woodgraining, Marbling and specialized
Wood-Finishing business to learn about the good old English
methods of Woodgraining and the correct simultations of all
the Marbles, Traverines and Granites in use today.
I
can say again, Bob Levey is an excellent craftsman and I can
highly recommend him to people who want the best, not only
for Wood and Marble, but also for Wall and European Texture
Finishes rarely seen in America.
