Conservative and reconstructive restoration of a beige silk tablecloth with seric embroidery and 20th century metallic yarns.
The mechanical and environmental stresses operated during the periods of exposure and use of the work have caused widespread and different phenomena of degradation of physical and mechanical type.
Restoration phases
Elimination of the particle deposit on the front and back of all tissues by a microaspirator at controlled speed.
Cleaning of the base fabric and embroidery with neutral pH sponges.
Protective micro net to protect the most degraded areas.
Reconstruction of the decors degraded with application of new yarns compatible with the original.
