Complete Column Restoration

 

We resculpted the Acanthus Leaf ring, created a mold and cast new plaster rings

for installation on top of the restored columns.

 

Restored Sculpture

Wippet statue, 2 capitols & urn were resculpted and molded for casting new pieces.

Highly Ornate Hand-Carved Wooden Staircase

Highly ornate hand carved wooden staircase at Vanderbilt Museum in the process of restoration. 

Staircase was completely disassembled , severe rot was treated with epoxy, missing detail was re-carved.  The staircase was re-assembled for a satisfied customer.

 

Fountains

 

 

 

These are some of the fountains we have restored. All were presented to us in varying states of decay and disrepair.

 

 

 

  

 


Some of the elaborate moldings we have produced.
This type of molding is difficult to produce by any
means other than hand carving, which we are capable
of doing or by molds made by our custom mold shop.
They can then be cast in a variety of materials such
as plaster, wood putty, resin, or cast stone. We can
fabricate complete window or door surrounds in the
most intricate design in multiples for your next
building project
