Restoration 

Antique frames are collectable pieces of art in their own right. We are able to restore frames to their good original condition. Damaged and missing sections of gesso and ornament are replaced and then gilded to match the patina of original gilded areas, we always try to preserve as much of the original finish as possible and retain the creators workmanship but if this is not viable then the entire frame can be gilded and then antiqued and distressed to replicate the patina of the years gone by. Many antique frames have been over painted with gold paint, this can be removed to restore the frame to its original glory.

We are always looking to buy good antique frames in any condition. If you are looking for an antique frame for a specific painting or a mirror we can source this for you. We also undertake restoration work on gilded furniture and are happy to arrange for the restoration of oil paintings, water colours, and works on paper using experts in these areas.
