Parquetry Restoration

What is Parquetry?

Parquetry is a decorative woodworking technique that involves arranging small pieces of wood in geometric patterns or intricate designs, often used on tabletops, cabinets, and antique flooring. Dating back centuries, parquetry showcases the craftsmanship and artistry of its time—and preserving it requires a deep understanding of wood species, grain, and traditional joinery.

At ECR Antique Conservation and Restoration Inc., we offer antique wood restoration services that honor the complexity of these inlaid designs. Our work combines meticulous hand restoration techniques with a passion for preserving the legacy of fine furniture and architectural woodwork.

Why Choose Parquetry Restoration?

Parquetry, due to its delicate and complex construction, is prone to damage from moisture, wear, or improper refinishing. That’s why our parquetry restoration services focus on preservation, not just aesthetics.

Here’s why professional restoration is crucial:

• Restores Structural and Visual Integrity
  We repair loose or missing pieces, re-glue veneers, and fill gaps while preserving the original design and layout.

  Parquetry isn’t just decorative—it’s historical. Our team treats every piece with the reverence it deserves.

• Tailored to Your Piece
  Whether it’s a marquetry tabletop or a parquet floor panel, each restoration is customized to suit the specific materials, period, and style.

• Increases Value and Longevity
  Restored parquetry not only looks stunning but also retains its value and durability for years to come.
