Have his name or a sentimental message embroidered on the apron, along with an antique restoration-themed design. This unique and practical gift will make him feel proud of his craftsmanship every time he wears it.

4. Antique Restoration Workshop: Surprise your grandpa with a workshop or class that specializes in antique restoration.

Look for a neglected or worn-out antique piece that he can transform with his expertise. This gift not only emphasizes his love for restoration but also serves as a new project for him to work on and showcase his craftsmanship.

6. Subscription to Restoration Magazines: Keep your grandpa updated on the latest trends, techniques, and discoveries in the world of antique restoration with a subscription to restoration magazines.
