When you think about conservation, equate it to restoring the furniture or object the best way possible for the history, life and value of the object.

We also provide a wide variety of services toward the overall care and preservation of your objects, including design services or care advice and acquisition at wholesale cost.

The partnership is Mitchell Powell, PA, AIC (MRP byline) and
Kate Powell (DKP byline), partners in work and in life, each with our specialties.

Located in Portland, Oregon, we serve the West, from Southern California to Canada,
and into Montana, Idaho, Nevada, and Arizona; in business in Oregon for 40 years.
Occasionally we go beyond the west when no other conservator is nearby
or it is a specialty that is not available in the area.
