I am an expert in restoring 17th and 18th English Silver. I have worked on over 3000 pieces, some very important. I also restore early American Silver.
I have restored antiques for
Argentum and the Leopards Head in San Francisco for the last 13 years.
I have also done Silver conservation work on antiques for the Oakland Museum, The Asian Art Museum and the deYoung in San Francisco and the Philadelphia Museum.
My 30 years experience as a Silversmith adds to my expertise.
I think, my favorite piece so far that I have conserved was for the St. Louis Art Museum; the teapot made by the first known Black American Silversmith, Peter Bentzon.
