Cleaning smoke damage from artwork, other framed items and collectibles is a service we routinely take care of. Paintings are often darkened by discolored varnish too. This gorgeous tonalist vintage painting, about 1920, by Granville Redmond re-emerges from the darkness to its former glory. It glowed after we cleaned it and put the conservation grade varnish layers of it.

This video just made my day Mr. Hankins. I’ve got a similar problem with my own painting and I’m glad it can be restored. I’m totally calling in for my art’s restoration.
This video just made my day Mr. Hankins. I’ve got a similar problem with my own painting that was just handed down to me. It looks awful, like the one in your video! I’m glad it can be restored.
