We offer the same range of repairs for objects that you love — from simple put-together to fully invisible, and the same craftsmanship and care — as we would for a rare antique.
Packing Instructions
If you are sending an object to our studio, these are important steps to follow:
- With any object that is in pieces, wrap each piece separately so that they cannot touch or rub against each other, which would cause more damage during shipping. Paper towels or individual plastic bags are good for this. Bundle the wrapped pieces together so that they cannot move.
- Use a double box. Pack the object with any pieces (wrapped as above) snugly in a cardboard shipping carton using plenty of cushioning material. Close it, then pack this box into a larger box – there should be 2-3 inches of space on all four sides, plus the top and bottom, between the inner and outer boxes. Fill this empty space with foam packing peanuts or other appropriate material so that the inner box will not shift during shipping.
- Some objects with wings, fingers, or other fragile projecting parts may break themselves in shipping unless they are snugly packed in the inner box and packed so there is no pressure on the delicate part.
- It is often a good idea to take the object to a professional pack and ship store if there is any question about packing it safely for shipment to us.
