The practice of restoring and reproducing antique items has been around for years. The need for antique reproduction arose out of the growing demand for genuine antique furniture and articles. Since genuine antique pieces were scarce and expensive, manufacturers turned to creating high quality reproductions. They employed the same production methods and material used for genuine antiques. The results were quality replicas that were readily available at lower prices. High quality reproductions are sometimes considered to be as good as the original pieces. Reproductions may also be weathered, cracked, chipped on purpose or sanded to give them an ancient look.

Antique restoration is a method of reconditioning or improving the condition of damaged antique products. Museums constantly restore and maintain their antique displays to keep them looking as good as possible. Restoration not only improves the appearance of antiques, it also helps extend their lifespan. The goal of restoration is to keep as much of the original piece intact as possible. Restoration of antiques makes it possible for future generations to appreciate historic craftsmanship and handiwork.
