s an antiques dealer – sourcing antiques in Europe – and reselling them in America – one of the biggest challenges after you get the goods home is having access Stateside to good restorers! Thus, we have solved the problem for you – after all, creating solutions to industry problems is part of our commitment to antiques dealers at The Antiques Diva & Co!

On our courses in the south of France and Cotswolds, England, we are teaching you basic restoration techniques for antiques, so you can do your own antiques restorations! Learn upholstery, gilding, paint matching & patination, as well as basic fixes for a broken leg, an arm on a chair, or the crack of a veneer. Tell us your biggest problems, and our instructors will customize this antiques restoration course according to your needs. With hands-on learning we teach you the essential skills you need to learn the art of restoration.

The Antiques Restoration Courses are organized as half day in the restoration workshop, half day visiting area antiques stores.

Courses are both Private and in Small Groups (maximum 4 students at a time).
