He specialized in fine bindings, including gold inlays. Much of his work involved the restoration of old and rare books for both private customers and numerous rare book libraries around the world. His well-established reputation in this field led to an invitation to help restore the water damaged books in the Florence library caused by the 1966 Flood of the Arno River.
