"I had two envelopes cleaned and restored by Jane Dosman and she did a very good job. The work was done professionally and I was very happy with the results. She listened to what I needed as I described the situation with the problems I had with the two envelopes. She gave me a report on the work to be done and the results when she finished. All in all a fantastic job. Thank you!"

"Jane Dosman is an expert paper conservator. She took great care with my vintage concert poster and skillfully restored it, with repairs, reinforcements and infilling a missing corner with matching replacement paper. Her handling and treatment of my rare artefact was impressive. I can highly recommend her services."

"Jane did a fabulous job with a VERY tricky bit of restoration of an 1860s Toronto hat box. The box was literally falling apart and it is now stable and intact and occupying a position of distinction in our collection."

"I want to express my gratitude for the fantastic restoration you did on my Grandparents wedding certificate from 1899! During our initial phone conversation you seemed confident that you would be able to repair the damage that years had done to the document, but I truly believed that when you would actually see it for yourself you would change your mind. How grateful I am to be proven wrong! Rolled up for years, brittle, dirty & torn made it a true challenge for you. Thankfully you rose to the challenge and resurrected the hopeless to shades of it's former glory. I truly appreciate what you have done with your unique talents. Thank you for allowing my treasure to be saved for future generations to respect."
