Antique Picture Frame Repair and Restoration in Raleigh
As anyone who has purchased hanging artwork knows, the original picture frame can make all the difference in the value of a picture or painting. The frame itself can often be extremely valuable even without a picture or painting.
Antique frames are incredible intricate, but also tend to be very fragile and difficult to handle in terms of repairs. Some antique frames can be ornately carved from a single piece of wood, which might have cracked and chipped over the years.
Other frames might be cast from metal which has become tarnished or even damaged to the point that a part needs to be recast. These are not simple repairs to perform and doing them improperly can mean completely ruining the frame. Because of this, it is very important to know that the person you are entrusting your antique frame to knows exactly what they are doing.
Frame Restoration
A restoration can be a very complicated process that can take weeks to perform properly. When you seek out a company to repair your frame, you do not simply want someone who can work with wood or carve frames. Antiques need a special touch that comes only with years of working with some of the finest pieces around.
John Allen, the founder of Capital Restoration, spent years restoring pieces for display in museums. These pieces did not just have to look good, they had to be restored properly to maintain their value and the integrity of the museum.
Because of this experience, Capital Restoration has the ability to restore antique frames so that they are like new but also maintain the value that makes owning antiques such a delight. Since the restoration process involves such detailed work, there is no reason to trust your piece to anyone but the best.
Frame Repair
Finding that your antique frame is damaged or even missing a part can be devastating. Antiques can often be one-offs which have few or no replacement options available. Sometimes, the only thing you can do is find a professional with the skills to repair or recreate parts of your antique.
Capital Restoration has the ability to repair damaged or cracked frames and can even recreate parts to match the original antique. Since a job like this leaves no room for error on an antique, you want the skills that come with restoring museum quality pieces when you choose your restorer.
After all, the frame itself can be just as impressive a piece of art as the painting it contains. Whether your frame simply needs cleaning or needs more intricate repairs, Capital Restoration can handle the problem.
Owning antiques is not just a hobby for some people, but a real passion. Every antique piece has a story to tell about its era. Unfortunately, many antiques get neglected or tossed aside by people who don't understand or appreciate them.
For those who do, seeing a worn out antique brought back to life can be a tremendous feeling. When you find that special frame you have been searching for, but you need to get it restored to its original state, you can rely on Capital Restoration to do the job properly and give your antique new life.

How do I frame and mount antique linens?
I have a number of antique linens with great details, embroidery, tatting, etc.... and would like to put them on display in my house. What are some ideas?
ooh...you need to take them to a museum trained framer. they will use special acid free board on the back, they will stretch it very carefully and they will put in UV blocking glass.
look in the yellow pages for museum quality framing.
