Conservation of Leather and Related Materials (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

The conservation of skin, leather and related materials is an area that, until now, has had little representation by the written word in book form. Marion Kite and Roy Thomson, of the Leather Conservation Centre, have prepared the first text of its kind which is both authoritative and comprehensive, including contributions from the leading specialists in their fields, such as Betty Haines, Mary Lou Florian, Ester Cameron and Jim Spriggs. The book covers all aspects of Skin and Leather preservation, from cuir bouillie and taxidermy to bookbindings, and discusses the tools and equipment needed to transform and preserve a wide range of animal products including fur, feathers, fish scales, and bird and reptile skin. There is significant discussion of the technical and chemical elements necessary in conservation, meaning that professional conservators will find the book a vital part of their collection. Case studies round out the informative reference.
