Stratton Sculpture Studios provides patination, gilding, and restoration for fine art, architecture, public monuments and historical objects.

With twenty-five years of experience each, patinists Julia Stratton and Pavel Effremoff are professionally trained in both chemical patinas, painted surfaces and gilding. Stratton Sculpture Studios works with artists to create patinas on newly cast work, matches existing patina for repairs, gilds work in gold and platinum, and restores aging patinas and painted surfaces on sculpture, including large-scale public monuments.

Our patination, gilding, restoration and maintenance work includes the collections of the Venice Biennial, Lehigh University, Ursinus College, the New York High Line, the Newark Liberty Museum, Michener Museum, Curtis Institute of Music, the Cathedral Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul, the Philadelphia Zoo, and Grounds for Sculpture.
