Although there is a lot of deliberation going on concerning restoration of art work, everybody does agree about the importance of being able to turn back what is done. Restorations must -if possible- be carried out in such a way, that they can be modified in the future without damage to the art work.

All used material will therefore be chosen accordingly.

Restoration of art objects is a profession with an ever increasing scientific basis. A lot of research is done into causes of decline, new techniques and materials are developed to slow down decline.

We (cooperating restorers) do always keep an eye on the latest developments in our field, and of course apply these wherever possible.

Cooperation exists with material purchase, use of equipment, consultation concerning techniques etc. Also there are the services of valuation, an art historian, photographer and chemist.
