Restoration Job Of The Week..... We were missing the pieces of plaster that had broken off this frame, so we fabricated new parts and finished/ antiqued to match.
A little about Antique Furniture restoration and few ways that restoration and conservation differ from refinishing.
The true process of restoration/conservation should not be confused with refinishing, although the two processes are often blended together on many projects. Often times, the antiques that make their way to us are in such a state of disrepair, a new finish is sometimes required. In these situations, much care is taken to replicate the original finish. The definition of restoration is to bring back to a former or original condition; to reconstruct or repair something so to restore it to its original or former state.
Restoration can be performed on objects of any age. If original or prior condition is the goal, restoration is the term of the process used to achieve that goal.
Although all restoration projects differ, the goal is generally the same. That is, to return that item to as close to its original condition as possible.
