✨ The art of bringing history back to reflection. ✨
I am thrilled to share the final results of my recent restoration work on this stunning Cammei "witches' mirrors" convex mirror. 🏛️🔮
Convex mirrors—often called "bankers' mirrors" or "witches' mirrors"—have a magical way of holding an entire room in a single glance. This particular piece features exquisite cameo (Cammei) detailing, which required meticulous, patient care to clean, stabilize, and restore to its original grandeur without losing its beautiful historic patina.
Every crack told a story, but now it’s ready to reflect many more stories for years to come.
Swipe to see the journey from weathered relic to timeless masterpiece! ➡️

Look at that incredible contrast! We are currently removing decades of yellowed, oxidized lacquer from this stunning 1956 multi-panel piece, "Acrobats Screen."You can clearly see the dramatic transformation happening right in the center panel. Over the last 70 years, the original protective lacquer turned a heavy, amber-yellow hue—visible on the left and right panels—which completely distorted the colors and flattened the composition.As we carefully lift that aged layer away, the original, crisp slate-blue background emerges, letting the vibrant reds, yellows, and white details of the acrobats truly pop. It’s like the artwork is finally waking up and breathing again!Art conservation is a slow, meticulous process, but moments like this reveal exactly why it’s so vital. Stay tuned to see the rest of the transformation! 🎨🖌️

Restored 1956 Piero Fornasetti "Obelisco con Farfalle" Table Lamp
A rare and highly collectible mid-century architectural table lamp, designed by Piero Fornasetti (Milano, circa 1956). This iconic piece features a tapered obelisk form constructed from lithograph-printed sheet metal, decorated with Fornasetti’s legendary, vibrant "Farfalle" (butterflies) motif scattered across a cream-ivory lacquered background. The design beautifully contrasts rigid classical architecture with enchanted, natural gracefulness.
Restoration Work Conducted:
This historic object underwent a meticulous, museum-grade conservation process to preserve its high collector value. The vulnerable, lithographically transferred butterfly graphics and lacquered metal frame were carefully stabilized and precision-cleaned to eliminate decades of surface oxidation and grime without stripping the original patina. The solid brass accents and leveling feet have been hand-polished. To ensure full operational safety, the interior electrical systems have been completely modernized with premium, period-accurate braided cloth cord, a new inline safety switch, and a high-quality socket assembly. The original rear translucent Plexiglas light diffuser has been thoroughly cleaned and re-secured to emit a beautifully soft, atmospheric glow.
