Repairing broken family treasures

A fractured statue, a shattered light fixture, a mangled cuckoo clock, a three-legged horse figurine: hopeless? That’s not a word you’ll hear very often at Brookes Restorations in Los Angeles. The shop specializes in repairing three-dimensional objects made of almost anything that cracks or chips, including wood, ivory, jade and porcelain. Repairs don’t come cheap, but the service can be invaluable to owners of damaged antiques. HOME, E3
