WORKSHOP CASE STUDY

Metal Polish & Restore

The andirons above, were brought to our in-house metal shop by our good friend Karen Smith. She’s renovating her home so it was the  perfect time to restore them to their original glory.

To achieve a quality result, the fist step was to take the andirons apart. We disassembled all the components with extreme care before determining the best technique to restore the metal. To be quite honest, after so much aging it was hard to tell what the original material was.
