Intricate Restoration of 19th century Italian terracotta Amphora. We recently restored this 19th century Italian terracotta amphora. They rest on the 31st floor and a freak wind gust broke one into pieces. Here’s a few after and during photos of our work. The first photos were taken once back in place. Restoring is certainly our bread and butter when it comes to business income. Seeing the smile on a customers face when delivering a finished piece can be more rewarding than the payment… BTW, the views from this outstanding building are the best I’ve seen in Melbourne.
