Restoration

Restoration forms a key part of the service we supply. At Cane & Davis, we have comprehensive knowledge of the traditional techniques used in frame manufacture and ensure that each job is individually assessed and treated. Our  client list includes a number of prestigious organisations such as Historic Royal Palaces, The Arts Council Collection and Eton College, and we have worked on frames belonging to important works of art by artists such as Caravaggio, Gabriel Rossetti, Lucian Freud and Francis Bacon.
