The British Antique Furniture Restorers’ Association is a national organisation of craftsmen engaged in furniture conservation and restoration. It was founded in 1979 to safeguard the interests of owners and buyers of antique furniture and the antique trade.

It seeks to act as a bridge between qualified conservator-restorers’ and those whose love of antique furniture requires the highest standards of conservation and restoration.

All Full members are required to have at least five years as a conservation-restoration professional (the average member today has 23 years experience) and pass exacting assessment on their skills, knowledge and business credentials. Our members acknowledge the importance of continuous professional development to keep abreast of advances in knowledge, skills and technical developments in the craft

There are categories of Associate membership designed to assist students and college graduates in working towards accreditation and for whom programmes of mentoring and education are arranged.

BAFRA has a Friends Section for those with a love of fine furniture and allied objects, their history, conservation and restoration.

The objectives of BAFRA are:

  • The maintenance of the highest professional standards in furniture conservation and restoration.
  • The raising of the public awareness of the association.
  • The sharing of information and techniques amongst its members.
  • The promotion of study and research in furniture conservation and the advancement of public education in these fields.
