Restoration Services

Every piece receives individual attention and period-appropriate care

Complete Structural Restoration

£745.00

When a piece has broken joints, split wood, or compromised structural integrity, we disassemble it carefully and rebuild using traditional joinery methods.

This service includes regluing loose joints with reversible hide glue, replacing damaged tenons, repairing split panels, and reinforcing weak areas without altering the original design.

Typical timeline: 6-8 weeks

Surface Refinishing & French Polish

£520.00

Transform worn, damaged, or dull surfaces into lustrous showcases of natural wood grain.

We carefully strip old finishes, address any surface damage such as scratches or water marks, and apply traditional shellac-based French polish by hand—building up dozens of thin layers to create depth and clarity.

This is the historically accurate finish for most 18th and 19th-century furniture.

Typical timeline: 4-6 weeks

This service may include color matching and aging treatments to blend repairs seamlessly.

Typical timeline: 5-7 weeks
