The restoration work carried out by Schiavetto Restauri Ligne seeks to restore the objects to their original condition and function, by employing techniques in use during the period the objects belong to.
Although each project is unique, they all follow a series of principal restoration phases:
-Cleaning of the surface and disassembly of the furnishing element-Disinfestation to get rid of xylophagus insects-Work to remove grease and varnish/paint-Checking for breaks and consolidating them accordingly, with a careful analysis ofthe structure and how the pieces fit together-Consolidation of wooden parts that have deteriorated-Reintegration of the missing wood parts; work on the layering and the inlay work-Finishing with shellac and natural waxes.
At the final stage of the work, attention is paid to adjusting the rotation and closing mechanisms and to anti-woodworm and anti-dampness treatments, before the conclusive varnishing work carried out using techniques from the same period as the furnishing element.
