Description

American Indian cultural objects| like most objects| deteriorate over time. Precious and irreplaceable pieces of a people’s heritage can turn to dust| either slowly or rapidly| depending upon their composition and the ways in which they are stored and handled. This practical guide| with over 100 colour and black-and-white photographs| offers Indian and non-Indian caregivers| conservators| and collectors helpful information on standard museum practice to aid them in making decisions to slow deterioration.
