Lladro Don Quixote
Just click any of the photos below to go back to the examples main page.
As a Restorer
recommended by Lladro I get many Lladro items in, this is the first
to make it to the examples pages.
This Large Lladro Don Quixote arrived with damage to his arm and
hand holding the sword.
The arm was broken in three main pieces with further shards and
chips as is often the case with Lladro damage.
In addition the sword had
become detached from the handle and there was a crack on the
scabbard.
The broken pieces were
carefully cleaned and reglued in stages using Fynebond.
The sword handle was carefully glued on and an insert was added for
strength which was painted to match the gold metal of the sword.
The missing areas were colour filled with Fynebond tinted with dry pigments to match and once cured and polished, the break areas were painted with Cold Glaze.
