Charles Sandford crafts architectural details that are authentic to a building and individual because off-the-shelf pieces can't always match the individual character and style of a house or building. Architects, designers and home renovators count on him to follow their plans - and their vision. He'll restore beloved ornamentation that's seen better days. If it's too far gone to save, he'll reproduce it in the traditional style and using traditional techniques. He's one of few wood turners in Melbourne to reproduce Victorian style rope-twist window ornamentation. He's restored the spiral posts of South Melbourne's famous shop verandahs. He can turn grand fluted Georgian columns and the finest ivory knobs. |
