We perform the restoration and replacement of tiles and ceramic murals, plaques or borders. If you have trouble finding some antique or discontinued ceramic item we can reproduce it. We hand paint our works and can enamel any ceramic support.

In this section of our catalog you will find some pictures showing the restoration and restitution ceramic works in the Park of Málaga, also called Park Avenue, we performed in 2006. In this case, the job was to restore the original parts to each fountain, bank, planter, soil of the squares... of the famous park opened in 1897. We conducted the study and research of ceramic products for restoration of tiles, fountains, benches, baseboards, friezes, murals, bricks, soils... that provided the appropriate function to replace the original elements.
Our Workshop was responsible for carrying out the research work of original designs, finding the necessary materials and handicrafts, and conducting and supervising the restoration works in several locations of the park.

Glorieta of "Nymph with Seashell". The casting sculpture of 1.60 m. was made ​​by  A. Durenne in 1877. This statue was initially installed in the Victoria square, and in 1922 was transferred to the Park. In 1970 was again withdrawn due to spoilage, returning to the Park after restoration by Salvador Parra for the City Council works in 2006. Hardest thing of restoring this Glorieta was rebuilding the fountain, because it was not possible to find any documentation about its original design, so we did it from an image of an old postcard, you can see to the right of the photograph.
