Historic homes and sites showcase our entire range of abilities in restoration and conservation. Preserving historic authenticity is of primary importance, as is ensuring that restored pieces will endure for future generations to enjoy.

More than mere decorative beauty, and beyond their intrinsic value as antiques, the architectural details and furnishings of historic sites possess social and educational significance that requires special care to properly preserve. Our sensitive and meticulous handling of historical preservation projects has enabled us to work with historical conservators, historic home owners, and antique aficionados.
