Fallon & Wilkinson, LLC is a furniture conservation firm founded in 2000 by principal conservators, Tad D. Fallon and Randy S. Wilkinson. Both were trained at the Smithsonian Institution’s prestigious Furniture Conservation Training Program and completed conservation fellowships at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Preservation Society of Newport County, and the Mystic Seaport Museum, respectively. Fallon & Wilkinson, LLC brings a combined 45 years of training and experience to the care and conservation of furniture, wooden artifacts, and interior woodwork, blending old world craftsmanship with modern conservation practices. The firm also provides museum quality reproduction furniture to museums and private clients.

“We had a fabulous time at the class and we now have the tools -or some of them- to have professional disagreements whenever we come across a frame that may be gilded or painted. We are better for the experience you have provided and we are already talking about building ourselves a studio to work in.”

"Just wanted to let you know that I just bought an old Weber piano that was made in 1898. I'm so excited that I have the equipment that you gave me to be able to clean the finish. For a person who doesn't like antiques, I am getting quite a collection. I have two now."
