Testimonials
Our customers’ experiences are our top priority, See what some of our satisfied customers had to say about their experience with Burgin and Brown Conservation of Paintings.
Burgin and Brown does outstanding work. Heather was SO knowledgeable, meticulous, and thorough. I presented her with a VERY challenging job: A set of 200+ year old portraits, which required a high level of expertise and historical problem solving—including correcting issues from an improper restoration that was done over a century ago! She exceeded all expectations, and brought new life into my priceless family heirlooms. I wouldn’t trust anyone else!
This painting had been in our family for many years, we knew nothing about it except it was extremely dirty and had several tears in the canvas. The frame had cracks and chips. As you can see from the photos, Heather used her knowledge and skill to transform the painting and frame to its original beauty. She also uncovered the date of 1882 and initials in the corner. We don’t know the identity of the artist but Heather gave us some extremely interesting facts about the composition and perhaps the setting. She also informed us that the painting was hung very close to a wood burning fireplace for many years. If you are in need of a restoration artist, I highly recommend Heather. The photos speak for themselves.
We had a portrait of a relative from early to mid 1800s by an accomplished Spanish artist. Although there were scattered spots with missing paint and obvious water damage, the main concern were layer(s) of grime and old yellowed varnish covering the painting and the frame. The frame also had some missing pieces of wood besides water damage. Heather seemed intrigued by the challenge and, simply put, she performed an outstanding restoration of both painting and frame…Perhaps not so visible is the careful repair and strengthening of the back of the portrait and frame! I highly recommend Burgin and Brown, particularly Heather, for any such art restoration you might have.
