Gusten's Restoration Studio
Expert Restoration of Porcelain, Pottery & Ceramics Since 1994
About Us
Joe and Lenore Gusten have been full-time restoration artists since 1994. It all started as a desire to mix their art backgrounds and interests in ceramics. Over the years, they have developed their own techniques for creating durable, beautiful restorations of ceramic objects, including pottery and porcelain.
Along with their broken treasures, clients have also brought some great stories. It gives these artists great pleasure to restore those memories and connections to ancestors through the restoration process.
Joe and Lenore have been guest speakers for historic home preservation societies, antique collectors' clubs, antique study societies, museum curators and antique dealers. They have done work for MESDA, (Museum of Early Southern Decorative Arts). The North Carolina Museum of Art in Raleigh, NC, the Mint Museum in Charlotte, NC, the Rowan Museum in Salisbury, NC, as well as the Restoration Department of Replacments, LTD refer to them, as well as numerous antique dealers, interior designers and moving companies.

"...The statue was knocked off a table and broken. My mother was devastated; that was in 1924. I always loved it, even broken. So thank you so much, you did a beautiful job. I cried when I saw it restored. Thank you." Phyllis M, Modesto, CA
We look forward to hearing from you!
