Here are the basic joints for restoration (Crisi, thanks for the fotos!):
This is a basic Mortise and Tenon Joint.
It consists of a protruding part, the tenon, and a well fitting negative form, the mortise. On the picture you see a joint cut with chisel. This technique is used e.g. on shoulder parts of chairs, but also for reparation of broken parts.
This is a Corner Bridle Joint with a 45° cut.
The Half Lap Splice has less glueing surface. This makes it a weaker joint, so we use it for smaller loads.
The Mitred Half Lap has an even smaller glueing surface.
This kind of Dovetail Joint is used for reparation of broken parts, in particular for torn seats or tables.
The Dovetail Joint prevents withdrawal.
On the following website you will find all joints with description, possible applications and methods:
