Gorham Sterling Dresser Set

 



Though there's no before image, you can imagine what a 100+ year-old dresser set would have looked like. The plastic comb had deteriorated to the point of being unusable and both brushes required new bristles. New maple brush blocks were filled with natural boar bristles (by Woonsocket Brush Company) which I reset, and the comb received a new filler that's secured with sterling pins. All pieces were gently polished and protected from tarnishing with Meguiar's Quik Wax. Dresser set restoration prices can be found here.
