Restoration of Georgian Map Sampler by Tomasin Bache 1792 Wyken School

In May 2022 we were entrusted with conserving and reframing an 18th century map sampler which had been in the owners’ family for generations. 

The images give an indication of the various stages of the restoration process.  A testimonial from the owners can be found below. 

“We recently had a map sampler dated 1792 which had come through the family restored by Chris and Liz. We were amazed by the quality of the work and the way this brought a very old sampler back to life, we would recommend them to anyone. We particularly liked the detailed report on what was done.”  C and A (Wiltshire) 2 July 2022 at 17.34.
