the restoration of a hanging scroll featuring a painting

Over the course of decades, hanging scroll paintings inevitably develop stains, creases, or tears. Rather than adding new paint or altering the original work, our studio focuses on stabilizing fragile materials—preserving the authentic history and texture inherent to each piece.
