Coane+Co recently repaired a much treasured sculpture for Artist and Sculptor, Michael Green. He had knocked it of its plinth and it had cracked in a number of places, so I took up the challenge of fixing it for him.

Abstract in shape and carved from a single piece of cherry, it made for a very tricky repair requiring a custom support frame and a number of glue-jigs. The main break was also in the most structurally vulnerable area, splitting down the grain at the start of a cantilever.

In the end the repair was made and the Michael was very happy to have his favourite sculpture back in his studio.
