Repair: Original textile was removed from the plaster molding to find that they were cracked and unstable. The cracks were filled as well as around the back of the mould for stability. The new textile was applied by creating a draped pattern and adhering it to the plaster mould. A faux binding was then added as decorative accent. The antlers were cleaned and polished and then the wood was refinished to create a sleek design.
