Old tapestries and collector's rugs can be the subject of different restoration operations.

 

The treatment proposals are dictated by: the general state of conservation of the object, the origin, the period… as well as by its destination (private collection, public collection, museum, historic monument), or its historical interest.

​

These questions arise when choosing treatments:

​

  • The restoration can be conservative. Its objective is to stabilize the alterations of the works and to present the pieces in the best conditions of conservation.

​Our ethics : respect the rules of the restorer-curator's deontology: readability, reversibility, stability and the choice of materials and techniques.
