Examples of Antique Restoration undertaken on scientific items and other items of interest

This page shows some recent before and after examples of our restoration undertaken on antique items of interest.

We are sometimes asked to undertake restoration on ivory unless the client provides us with old ivory that we can use, we will use a substitute.

Below is a picture of a Maharaja circa 1800, three inches high missing a hand.

ivory figure without hand ivory figure with out hand .jpg

This ivory maharajah was finely carved in around 1800 in India and is of the Sikh religion and is probably Ranjit Singh.

Unfortunately the figure was dropped and the hand broken and lost, we were asked by the owner of this figure to carve a new hand, below you can see the result.

This repair was undertaken using an ivory substitute containing bone dust and resin, the carved hand when finished with just over a quarter of an inch long.
