Special Remarks: A.R.S. Antiqua Co., LLC has been in antique
furniture restoration and conservation field since 1989. Throughout the years
we stripped, finished, refinished, repaired and restored hundreds of antiques
and pieces of furniture. We proudly service five boroughs of New York City,
Westchester, some New Jersey areas and Long Island. We have the long list of
private and institutional clients.
Water gilding is one of the finest and most time consuming mirror frame 
finish that we offer to our clients. The work is very labor intensive 
but extremely pleasing. This project required chemical removal of old 
finish, frame preparation, applying new gesso, clay and 23K gold, 
burnishing and finishing.
 Large mirror. This frame was originaly gilded in 23K gold and burnished 
in the detail areas. It has been gold painted and touched up many times 
to keep it somewhat in shape. We chemically removed the paint, exposed 
old background and re-leafed the frame.
