Restore

The goal of vintage restoration is to preserve the original character and integrity of the item. This means using materials and techniques that are as close to the original as possible. Vintage restorers also take care to preserve any unique features or patina that the item may have developed over time.

Refinish

At Maison Robert, we believe that vintage items are treasures that should be cherished. That’s why we take the utmost care in refinishing our vintage pieces, using only the highest quality materials and techniques.

We understand that every vintage item is unique, and we work to preserve its original character and integrity while also improving its appearance and functionality.

Repair

We believe that vintage items have unique value, have a history and character that cannot be replicated, and that should be preserved.

Vintage items are often made with high-quality materials and craftsmanship, and they can last for many many years if they are properly cared for. They made it this far. We also believe that preservation is a way we can show our respect for the past, pay homage, and contribute to creating a more sustainable future.
