Dear China Coast Friends,
TEXTILES
PRESERVATION DISPLAY CONSERVATION STORAGE
This is a little bit off my subject but I receive so many calls about how to preserve and display textiles that I decided to post this article by Julia M. Brennan that appeared recently in TEXTILES ASIA (www.textilesasia.com).
Julia Brennan has been passionately involved with textile conservation and preservation around the world on behalf of collectors, museums, historical associations and foreign governments for over twenty-five years. In this article she highlights a number of issues concerning display, storage, temperature and insects. She works with European tapestries, Oriental carpets and Asian textiles. Her website is: www.caringfortextiles.com
I have permission to show the article as it was printed in the Textiles Asia magazine.
Cheers,
Elisabeth
