Decorative Arts & Gilding
Traditional & Contemporary Materials
Our conservators specialise in traditional and contemporary materials, blending historical techniques—such as water and oil gilding—with modern conservation methods to restore intricate finishes. Our Decorative Arts and Objects conservators regularly work on frames, carvings, sculptures, Cloisonné enamels and even ivories, covering objects from ancient to contemporary periods. Ivory restoration can include crack reinforcement, structural repairs, and ethical ivory replacement with bone or Ivorin.
