Provided by DexKnowsNot European craftsmanship, just an ambitious fraud. Ziggy's daughter graduated with my daughter, and he lived in the neighborhood so I trusted him.I took in my grandfather's tiger oak dresser with beveled mirror. Ziggy replaced the beautiful old mirror with a cheap, distorted one, and refinished, not restored. When I called him to let him know I wanted my mirror, he told me to "Go to Hell." On May 4, 2009, he showed up at my front door, and said "you've been putting reviews on line." I said I had, and he called me names while speaking softly and smiling, because the neighbors were outside across the street. I reported him to the police. Shocking, but now not surprising from this person. Avoid Evanstonia for poor quality, absence of trustworthiness. Avoid this person's impulsive and erratic behavior.

Provided by DexKnowsI recently purchased a dining room table and six chairs from Ziggy at his Ravenswood location. I also purchased a buffet/bureau for my living room. Ziggy was very responsive when the payment process was unfolding (i.e. when I was in the process of paying him). Even though we agreed on terms he called days later asking for more money upfront than we agreed (he wanted to change the terms). He was also deceptive in trying to convince me that someone else wanted the chairs even though they sat in his store for months. Sales technique I'm aware but still poor service for a supposed upscale antique store. In terms of the quality of his work and professionalism ... I agree that it borders on "refinishing" not "restoring." An example, my dining room table is mid-century, it has developed some veneer weakness. I've been trying to get Ziggy over for 3 months to fix the issue (which I believe is minor). I have been given the run-around and some unpleasantness. As with Susan Ziggy can be on one ha
