Easily accessible from both London and Cambridge, the studio operates by appointment only, Monday through Saturday between 9:00am and 5:00pm. Clients are invited to call 01799 542447 to arrange a consultation. Each restoration is carried out with sensitivity, care, and respect for the object’s original form and material.

A Personalised Approach to Ceramic Restoration

Bradshaw Ceramic Restoration specialises in repairing display-only ceramic pieces. Whether antique or modern, each item is individually assessed to determine the most appropriate treatment. From rebonding broken sections to replacing missing areas and matching original colours, every step is handled with precision.

Where previous repairs have discoloured or deteriorated, they are carefully removed and replaced. Shards are aligned and reassembled using specialist adhesives, and any missing details are reconstructed and retouched by hand or airbrush. The goal is to restore the integrity and beauty of the piece, with as little disruption to the original material as possible.

Combining Craft with Conservation

At the heart of the process is a deep respect for the object's history. Bradshaw uses both low-firing and cold-curing methods, depending on the sensitivity of the ceramic. Advanced colour-matching is conducted under controlled lighting to ensure the final result blends seamlessly.

Each material—whether porcelain, china, enamel, glass, marble, or ivory—is treated with the appropriate level of care. The studio combines modern conservation-grade materials with time-honoured techniques to achieve invisible repairs that honour the object’s past.

Restored to Display Standards Only

Clients should note that restored ceramics are not intended for functional use. Repaired objects are for display only and must be kept out of dishwashers or food environments. Each client receives guidance on handling, storing, and maintaining their restored item to ensure it remains stable and visually cohesive over time.

With a workshop located in Essex, Bradshaw Ceramic Restoration serves clients from nearby counties and major cities. Its location offers convenience to collectors, antique dealers, interior professionals, and families with sentimental heirlooms across Essex, London, and Cambridge.

Every restoration begins with a conversation. The studio welcomes enquiries by phone, and all work is carried out on a pre-booked basis to allow each object the attention it deserves.
