Steven Whiting  

   British Furniture Restorer,  Steven Whiting participated in last year’s Rhinebeck Antique Fair, and is looking forward again to meeting visitors and answering their questions on Restoration, Repair and Maintenance.

Whiting, born in Kent, England grew up in a woodworking family.  Following the family tradition of fine craftsmen he entered the rigorous City and Guilds System.  Once in the Guild, his woodworking knowledge increased considerably. Afterwards, working with Master Craftsmen, their generous advice helped him learn and hone his skills in hand tools and techniques of his trade. 

His career of 37 years has now brought him to Woodstock NY where he now resideswith his family for the past 15 years.

        Roger Krokey 

 Roger Krokey, full time professional ceramic restorer and proprietor of Terra Nuova Restorations is dedicated to the responsible restoration of a broad range of ceramic antiques and art sculptures, and fully adheres to the ethics and guidelines set forth by the American Institute for Conservation.  His customers include some of the most respected dealers and collectors in America.

Broken or chipped ceramic items can be professionally restored to appear as if never broken.  This includes the creation of missing pieces and the precise matching of authentic colors, designs, textures and surfaces.   A customer may want a limited restoration.   This could include gluing the item and filling unsightly chips & voids, but not painting.  This limited restoration would cost less and yet the item would still be ready for the invisible restoration at a later date.  A customer may desire a crack “stabilized” so it will not split further, or a delicate object simply cleaned. 

Terra Nuova Restorations will advise you of the many options available.  Each option will be explained clearly along with its expected appearence.

Terra Nuova is a Member of ther Economy of Communion.  The EOC is a branch of the Focolare Movement joining over 700 businesses world wide sharing profits to those in need.

Roger Krokey of Terra Nuova Restorations is located in Rhinebeck, NY.
