Mining Scene Oil Painting

Overview

Jay Blades and the team bring three treasured family heirlooms, and the memories they hold, back to life. Art conservator Lucia Scalisi revives an oil painting of a mining scene, created by an amateur artist in the 1960s. Embroidery expert Sara Dennis and silversmith Brenton West join forces on a delicate wedding tiara, originally worn by a 1950s model whose granddaughter, Lydia, wants it restored for her own impending nuptials. And mechanical maestro Steve Fletcher takes receipt of an early 20th-century chiming mantelpiece clock that was gifted to a loving couple on their wedding day.
