Frame Restoration

Preserving artistic heritage

Restoration is a crucial activity for the preservation of historical artifacts, such as architecture, manuscripts, and paintings, repairing damaged or missing parts caused by time and accidents.

As a Florentine artisan, I work with fine gold leaf applied to a particular surface to create an effect known as ‘craquelure’; the gold patina is of utmost importance.

This specific gilding technique ensures that the result of the work is as realistic and close to perfection as possible, and to achieve this, a special coating is applied and then patiently removed in various stages. This lengthy process requires utmost dedication and expertise.
