Ceramic Conservation and Restoration
My ceramic restoration studio specializes in the restoration and conservation of ceramics including porcelain, china, stoneware, earthenware, terracotta, pottery, enamels, glass, ivory, marble, jade and parian ware.
Working to the highest standard using the finest quality conservation grade materials whether repairing an antique ceramic object or conserving an artefact for a museum.
Ceramic Repair
Each piece is individually assessed before any repairs are undertaken. In order to preserve the integrity of the object we always maintain as much of the original ceramic as possible. We use a modern sympathetic approach to mending ceramics, paying attention to detail when colour filling, modelling and hand re-touching for an invisible repair.
Although I specialize in repairing antique ceramics we will consider working on modern studio pottery.
At the studio we can restore or conserve the following ceramics:
- Soft and hard paste porcelain
- Bone China
- Stoneware
- Earthenware
- Terracotta and other low fired ceramics
- Pottery
- Enamels
- Glass
- Ivory
- Marble
- Jade
- Parian ware
I offer a consultation service and can produce condition reports. The studio is based in Taunton, Somerset and is equal distance from Bristol and Exeter in Devon.
