We are happy to assist with wooden sculptures and objects in need of care. Please fill out the form below and we will be in touch with a bespoke treatment plan.
Wooden Sculpture Restoration
Wood sculptures and ornamental items face atmospheric challenges and age-related deterioration. Cracks and brittle areas can fall away, causing a dramatic break in the structure. Accidents can also happen, with surfaces easily becoming abraded or broken through mishandling or knocks and falls.Â
Our conservators treat wooden sculptures with sensitive techniques, re-adhering broken areas with conservation grade adhesives and cleaning with carefully tested solutions.
We can also recreate lost parts and assist in the continued preservation of a piece, whether it is antique or modern.
What can we restore?
- Dust and debris build-up
- Mould and rot
- Loss of colour or patina
- Broken pieces
- Cracks and flaking
- Recreation of missing details
- Water damage
- Fire and smoke damage
They can also reapply the original finish of a sculpture, whether this is wax, polish, lacquer, gilding or painted details.
When an area is missing or beyond repair, our team can perfectly recreate and colour-match new pieces, allowing the sculpture to return to stable condition with its original visual appeal.
Loose or failing joins, as well as historic areas of repair, can be stabilised to ensure your object is in good condition without fear of continued deterioration.
Our team has previously restored a variety of wooden objects including:
- Guy Taplin sculptures
- Wooden figurines
- Church sculptures
- Chess pieces
- Croquet set pieces
- Sculptural furniture or interiors
