Damaged, Repair, Clean, Preserve Soviet Awards And Documents.
Gentlemen,

I do not know if this particular subject has been previously discussed here. I attempted a search, but came up with nothing.

In any case, I own this very rare cockarde in relic condition. It seems that one of the previous owners began restoration, but only got as far as the separate center roundel.

Until I find a better example - which I doubt will ever happen - I would like to complete the uncompleted process by restoring the enamel on the star.

Who does this sort of work nowadays?

Regards,
Richie
