We require a GOOD furniture maker to make us an armoire, an entertainment center, and possibly a coffee and set of end tables. We have pictures and dimensions. Anybody know of anyone near Dhahran? Heard of people in Bahrain but would not want to go there. Thanks and we are concerned with quality more than cost so please if you recommend someone make sure they are awesome.

o,
We live in Ras Tanura and just had an oak "L" shaped desk made and the quality is impeccable. We were also able to see an entertainment center and tables he made for another family which convinced us of the quality and workmanship. Since we are close, we stopped by every week to check on the progress. Not sure if you are willing to travel to Rahima but it would be worth considering. All we provided him was a picture and dimensions and it came out better than we expected.
The furniture shop is located in Rahima (little difficult to find but we would be glad to take you there) but well worth the drive. "Boy" is the contact, number is 05 4247 8733.

o
Yes we too have been looking for a good craftsman for a long time and we will certainly contact this furniture maker and yes if you can please post the GPS co-ordinates that would be brilliant.
I need a piano stool made - at the moment I have borrowed one but we know exactly what design we need also we have furniture that needs repairing as our house boy has been so thorough with his cleaning he has damaged some of our furniture with the hoover.
I wonder if this furniture maker could make us an outside pergola as well.
Thanks for this great information.
Kind Regards
Carolina
