STABIlization, replacing missing materials, reassembly, polishing

Hailing from the era of George III, the antique chair suffered a dramatic fall from the second level of a large storage cabinet. Our meticulous restoration journey began with a thorough cleaning of the breaks in all shattered components. Progressing to the next stage, we carefully conducted a dry assembly, followed by the application of hot glue to reunite the fractured pieces. In addition to structural stabilization, our efforts included the replacement of missing materials, precise color touch-ups, and a final polishing process to seamlessly integrate the restored sections, resurrecting the piece to its former glory.
