We are glad to invite you to the CR-UNCH CLEANLAB

A presentation by Julie Schröter and Miriam Truffa Giachet, who will give us general results of the project

“Artefacts made of lacquered brass such as scientific instruments and decorative bronze items are widely represented in museum’s collections. The degradation of both the lacquer and the metal alloy is a frequent problem from an esthetical and conservation point of view.

Conservators are frequently confronted with the challenge of trying to remove corrosion products and preserving traces of historical lacquer at the same time.”

Come and join us in room 324 or online to discover how the CLEANLAB project contributes to a better understanding of degradation mechanisms of lacquered brass and gelled cleaning systems.

Tuesday 27th of February 2024, from 12 pm to 12.45 pm, room 324 or online (public link to join the presentation on Microsoft Team).
