Case Study

Pr
oject: Iznik Chimney
Client: Victoria & Albert Museum

We were commissioned to remove, conserve and remount the Iznik ceramic tiled fireplace situated in the corridor adjacent to Gallery 33. The fireplace was to form part of a touring exhibition of Islamic artefacts, so it was essential to design and construct a lightweight, demountable structure to support the exhibit.

Iznik Chimney

The Church of St Cynllo, Llangunllo

The Victorian geometric and encaustic tiles which formed the raised dais around the altar were made by Godwins of Hereford. They had separated from the substrate due to subsidence. The tiles were documented, lifted and dressed for re-use and matching remanufactured tiles were made to replace worn and damaged tiles.

The images below illustrate the floor after restoration.
