<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n \n
\n step
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n
Masterful Craftsmanship<\/div>\n \n
We rely on traditional techniques and authentic materials such as hot glue, shellac or natural wax. This guarantees restoration that is 100% faithful to the historical construction of your furniture.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a> <\/div>\n
\n
\n
\n step
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n
Decades of Expertise<\/div>\n \n
As a central restoration workshop in Berlin, we combine concentrated expertise. Regardless of which era your piece of furniture originates from \u2013 we know the specific characteristics, constructions and challenges.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/div> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n \n
\n step
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n
Careful Preservation of Value<\/div>\n \n
We do not simply make old furniture “new”. Our greatest concern is to respectfully preserve the historical substance, the authentic patina and the individual character of your heirlooms.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a> <\/div>\n
\n \n
\n step
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n
Transparent Cost Planning<\/div>\n \n
There are no unpleasant surprises with us. Before we begin any work, you receive a detailed and reliable cost estimate for your entire project.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n
\n
\n \n
\n step
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n
Convenient Transport Service<\/div>\n \n
Save yourself the stress of rental vehicles. We professionally collect your fragile and heavy treasures from your location in Berlin or Brandenburg and safely return them after restoration.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a> <\/div>\n
\n \n
\n step
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n \n
\n
Practiced Sustainability<\/div>\n \n
Instead of buying cheap replacements, we give high-quality furniture a second, long life. This conserves valuable resources, avoids waste and preserves genuine family histories for the next generation.<\/div>\n <\/div>\n<\/a> <\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n
