I have been working with Mark Randall for several months now on antique frames of art works that I…read morepurchased in European auctions. The experience has been absolutely wonderful! Mark has offered me a range of options from the most economical to the most complete repairs including gilding, reattaching artwork to frames, repairing the frames themselves at a range of prices and left the choice to me after giving his expert opinion. His work has been of excellent quality, and his prices have been quite reasonable. I have done both minimal inexpensive repairs for less valuable pieces to complete restoration of more valuable artworks and frames, and the quality of his work is consistent at all levels. He is a pleasure to work with......talented, knowledgable, friendly and fairly priced. You really get a lot of "bang for the buck" with his work. My highest 5 star recommendation. He is currently working on another piece for me, and I have more in the pipeline that I will bring him when they arrive damaged from the transportation from Europe which does happen from time to time. Run, do not walk, to his studio if you need this kind of quality service at an affordable price!
