Here are some letters from past Bareclay customers.
8/13/01
The initial smile alone, when it was received by the owner, was well worth
the work that went into it. The extended (and repeated) "Earth shattering"
story made it pretty funny (at least now).
The restoration looks wonderful, I cannot say enough about the work you have
done. Please do not hesitate to use me as a reference. I feel fortunate to
have found someone with the talent and caring it takes to put back together
pieces of the past. You've allowed me to refresh lost memories and carry
them proudly into the future. (How's that for a quote).
I look forward to presenting you with more "challenges".

Dear Lisa:
WOW! How did you do that!.... My husband and I are so very impressed! We could find no evidence of Mr. Mouse's trauma. The paint was perfectly matched,and we could find no trace of a seam. You are obviously a master artisan of your craft. Thank you so much for returning a cherished heirloom to me and to my family. I will certainly keep your name and address close for any mishaps that befall me or my collections. I would enthusiastically be a reference for you should you ever need one! Your craftsmanship and professionalism were superior. Since I collect ceramics and porcelains, I shall most certainly be asking for your help in the future and I will recommend you to all my collector friends. Thank you again!!!!!!!

Dear Lisa, A couple of months ago we ordered a one-of-a-kind, handmade porcelain statue from a noted Italian artist. When we received it from Italy we were disappointed to find that a hand holding a bell was broken off, potentially ruining the value of the piece. After unsuccessfully searching locally for repair help we found your service on the Internet. We had our doubts about an unfamiliar firm but decided to entrust the repair to you. After delivering the piece to you and waiting a few weeks we saw the results of your work. We were amazed to find that the piece looked as good as new. The paint surrounding the two break lines was matched so perfectly that it was impossible to tell that it had ever been broken. We were delighted to receive the repaired piece and to pay the modest repair bill. We have recommended you to the Italian agent who shipped us the sculpture for any other repairs for his American customers. Well done!
Thank you, Ron & Bonnie MacEwan
Lisa, We received Charlie on Wednesday. He is completely intact thanks to you, and Teresa is very happy. I'll send you a picture of him (body and all) seated in our newly renovated kitchen. Thanks again for your artistic and brilliant reconstruction job. Cheers, Jim (2/5/04)
Lisa It is perfect! Thank you so much, David (2/2008)
