Restoration & repair
of ship models and marine antiques is an important and ongoing
part of my business. I have worked on all kinds of models, large & small,
from the sublime to the ridiculous, and all of them even the “worst“ had
something to show me. Restoring antiques is supremely interesting
and instructive. One spends hours, if not days & weeks or sometimes
more, with one piece and learns all its secrets. Information about
construction, finish, objects left inside, how many times it has
been repaired, all is revealed. The education one receives trying
to match the original construction & finish would be almost
unavailable in any institutional setting. One also has the opportunity
to work on some outstanding examples of maritime art, such as illustrated
here. Restoration work is billed on an hourly basis, plus any associated
costs. An estimate will be given, but the final bill will reflect
the actual hours worked, more or less than the estimate. Reach
me by e-mail domihs@netzero.net or by telephone 978-371-2088
to discuss restoration work. |
