"Just a line to say thanks for the restoration to the handle of the Staffordshire Toby Jug the attention to detail and matching is faultless and cannot be detected even under a strong magnifying glass. I would not hesitate to recommend you to anyone no matter what the piece your attention to detail, skill and customer service is very rare to find these days."

My little Chinese horses have arrived safe and sound and excellently packaged. I am so thrilled with the result... never have I seen such an exquisitely perfect restoration... just like new, and certainly worth waiting for. Thank you so much.
