After many years of working as a professional restorer of ancient ceramics, I still enjoy the process of bringing an artifact "back to life", return it to its former glory as well as increasing its visual appeal and value. My goal is to revitalize without revising the intentions of the original artist. Whether it's a simple stress crack repair or the complete reassembly of a badly broken piece, each and every project is treated with the utmost care and respect. Being a life-long collector of art and artifacts, I have a strong passion for ancient objects as well as for my craft. My work is fully guaranteed for your complete satisfaction.

Client Confidentiality: Artifacts in the before & after pages are only a small sampling of the thousands of items I have restored. Most of the restored pieces shown here are from my own collection, the vast majority will not be shown in order to protect the privacy of my clients.

My methods: I practice non-invasive methods of repair. I use only water-based adhesives, fillers and pigments. Filling and in-painting are always kept to a minimum with little invasion to the original material. With proper care, repairs will last a lifetime with no fading, shrinking or discoloration.
