At AstaGuru, we believe, artwork and antiques are akin to living entities. The passage of time takes its inevitable toll on these historic works and the upkeep of their aesthetics and quality requires expert conservation and restoration efforts.

As a leading auction house, AstaGuru places immense importance on presenting artworks and collectibles with exceptional quality. Therefore, our dedicated team of proficient and specialised restorers and conservators play a crucial role. Skilled in carrying out these delicate tasks, they follow the approach of restoring, repairing or preserving an object only after analysing mediums, pigments, periods of origin, and other factors. We ensure that, with our skills, we provide the care, remedial and protective measures your prized possessions require.

The conservation team uses interdisciplinary historical methods and scientific analyses to archive and conserve artefacts for the future. For instance, heat can lead to thermal tension, moisture reduction, and even chemical alteration within the paint layer, sometimes even irreversibly. Due to the said environmental conditions, damage such as wrinkles, warping, weakening, and breaking off of the paper/cloth fibres, and excessive heat can harm the objects. We take immense care to not disturb these works’ historical and artistic integrity during our conservation efforts.

AstaGuru offers restoration services for paintings, sculptures, vintage cars, books, manuscripts, antique timepieces, furniture, decorative objects, textiles, and other items.
