Sculpture Restoration: Our Services

When restoring sculptures and polychrome works of art, our goal is always to preserve the character and uniqueness of the original artwork and to ensure its longevity.

Restoration of Sculptures

Due to their function and locations, sculptures made of materials such as wood, stone, clay, or metal are particularly susceptible to damage. Natural wear and tear, weather conditions, increasing environmental impacts, or improper handling of sculptures can lead to damage or visual impairments. As part of the restoration process, we first analyze the damage to the object and prepare a diagnosis. Based on this, we develop a restoration plan, always taking care to preserve the artistic integrity of these works for future generations.

Sculptural Setting

Viewers of a sculpture often underestimate the importance of its base, yet it plays a crucial role—it contributes significantly to the sculpture’s aesthetics and expressiveness, as well as its visual impact. The proper selection of a suitable base or pedestal—taking into account the surrounding space—and the choice of materials have a decisive influence on the interpretation and perception of a sculpture.

Polychrome Artworks

Polychrome sculptures are works of art that, through the use of color, have a distinctly more vibrant and realistic appearance. This comes with the drawback that, over time, the color fades, peels off, or is damaged by various factors. As a result, a work of art loses much of its original splendor and expressiveness.

Key components of the restoration process include the careful removal of old paint, the examination of the original layers of paint, the reconstruction of missing paint, and the use of appropriate conservation materials.

Restoration Techniques for Sculptures

While we restore your sculptures, our primary focus is on preserving the original integrity of your artworks. To this end, we use a variety of restoration techniques that can be applied to treat damage:

  • Consolidation Techniques
    The consolidation technique is used to stabilize loose or detached parts.
  • Crack-Filling Methods
    Crack-filling methods are used to seal gaps and cracks that have formed.
  • Retouching & Editing Techniques
    Using retouching and restoration techniques, we correct color damage and restore the visual cohesion of your artwork.
