Introduction to Furniture Restoration

Join Nessa Doran O'Reilly, Programme Manager for Rediscover Furniture, for a hands-on introduction to furniture restoration

Discover the art of furniture restoration with the Rediscovery Centre's Nessa Doran O'Reilly. At this hands-on workshop you will learn tips on how to identify the finish used (eg. wax, lacquer, etc.) to ensure the best care for it. Nessa will also cover the various techniques of cleaning antique furniture and teach you the methods for reviving certain finishes and, time allowing, how to carry out minor repairs.
You are welcome to bring along a small piece of furniture for cleaning and advice. The Rediscovery Centre will provide all materials on the day. If you have any queries about the workshop or about whether your piece of furniture is appropriate to bring along, please do not hesitate to contact us at bmVzc2EgfCByZWRpc2NvdmVyeWNlbnRyZSAhIGll.
Attendees must be over the age of 16.
