Oxford Restoration

Oxford Restoration LLC (owned and operated by Brian Stair) is a fine antique restoration and conservation company of the highest quality and integrity. Central to our mission is the idea of maintaining existing objects and structures so that they can continuously function in the way that they were originally intended. We are composed of highly skilled and experienced people whose aim is to conserve and restore antique furniture and architectural spaces to the highest possible standards. To achieve this it is important that we carry out our restoration using many of the same traditional techniques and materials that are specific to the period and origin of the object.
Established in 2002 by Brian Stair, Oxford Restoration was formed after the disintegration of the Sotheby’s Restoration Department of which he formally headed. Going back four generations, Mr. Stair’s family has been prominent in the antique and restoration trade. The immersion in antique furniture from an early age has given Brian exceptional expertise in identification of antiques and fine decorative arts and therefore makes Oxford Restoration one of the premier resources for restoration and conservation.
From antique furniture to finished mill work, paneled rooms to elevator cabs, Oxford Restoration thrives on the premise that we help make works of art appear to the observer as they were originally intended to by the artist. Restoration and conservation is one of the oldest recycling businesses in the world and here at Oxford Restoration we are proud of our time- tested, environmentally friendly methods and our superior product.
