About Us
Meet our head Conservator/Restorer
Melody possesses a wealth of expertise in stone and ceramic conservation. Last year, she made the decision to close her ceramic studio to fully dedicate herself to gravestone and monument conservation, encompassing stone sculptures as well. Across the nation, cemeteries are in dire need of assistance; many stones have toppled or incurred damage due to foundation issues, inclement weather, and acts of vandalism. The early examples crafted from marble, limestone, shale, and sandstone hold significant historical value. With over 30 years of experience, Melody has honed her skills and gained a deep understanding of restoration across various disciplines, particularly in stone conservation. Her commitment to preserving gravestones safeguards the rich history of our country. Through meticulous efforts in cleaning, stabilization, repairs, foundation replacement, and the use of recommended products endorsed by Federal Parks, Melody has established herself as one of the foremost experts in her field.
