Restoration of antiques
Naturally, the wear and tear of centuries can have caused damages to antique pieces of art. Broken parts, lost parts, faded gilding, paintings with holes and cracks, missing ornaments or inadequate gold painting top coats. Clocks can be out of order, silver cutlery incomplete or the original cutlery case can have been lost. Your Baroque-, Empire-, or Biedermeier furniture may have lost parts of the veneer or ornaments. The surface polish can have grown dull in the course of the decades since the last restoration or veneer areas can have become distorted or draws jammed.
