Over time, works of art can change and deteriorate through the natural aging process, environmental conditions or neglect. Without professional intervention these cherished possessions can be further compromised and de-valued.
Our preservation process begins with a thorough examination of each work, stabilization of vulnerable areas, followed by a determination of the most appropriate treatment.
Traditional and innovative techniques and materials are used in minimally invasive and totally reversible ways to maintain the artworks and restore their aesthetic integrity.
