This circa 1900-1930 leaded panel was damaged while in storage. The panel was removed, all
pieces were cleaned, reconstructed, releaded, and replaced in its original frame.
The client chose to stain the frame to add a dramatic effect to the panel.

This repaired beveled panel was salvaged before its original home was demolished. Damage was removed and the size
reduced to create a beautiful new addition to a lovely home.

This is one of a pair of very old leaded panels whose lead had naturally deteriorated allowing separation of the glass
in the panel. It also lacked the ability to be placed into a normal vertical setting due to the loss of structural strength
.
Much of the glass had cracked due to the stress of the strength failure.
Pictured is the completed re-framing with zinc came and reinforcement with steel bars that have been soldered to the
panel to provide the strength for a normal vertical display.

The antique glass top for this table was broken in half. A panel was designed and inserted into the middle
to make the table beautiful and functional, again.
An original from a family farm home, circa 1900, this Victorian style panel has been restored with new lead and a zinc
frame to be hung where all can enjoy its beauty. The owners had been looking for a restorer since 1977.
Years of oxidation, paint, and grime were removed to reveal the panels' sparkle and light.

A cat's attraction to this unique lamp shade made with foiled antique buttons created a most challenging repair opportunity.
|
The weight of this 24" diameter Tiffany-style lamp broke the connection between the lower glass and the upper support
structure. Glass had begun to drop out.
The repair to the lamp was completed by soldering a 1/4" brass ring to the upper support structure and sharing the
weight of the lower glass with the ring through four copper wires soldered to the lower structure which follow the pattern
of the shade.
