What sort
of items?
Does not
have to be antiques – any beloved item you want fixing can be worked on. Does not necessarily have to be ceramic (for
instance china, pottery, resins or plaster).

Are there
different levels of repair?
Yes, for instance,
some items, usually due to their history should not have extensive repair work. They
can have a ‘museum ‘ or ‘honest’ restoration. The repair
will be obvious but made to look clean and neat. A full restoration is where
the item is restored invisibly i.e. you will not be able to see the repair. The choice of the level of repair is yours, following
mutual discussions and suggestions from me.
Can I use
it as before?
Ceramic items repaired
should continue to be handled with care and are for display purposes only. No eating off plates or drinking from mugs! Clean
with care, wash as delicate.
