Abstract

This paper details the treatments used in the conservation and restoration of waterlogged lacquers. The individual pieces of lacquerware exhibited different problems and various methods were used to overcome them. The conservation methods described in this report include the removal of the lacquer from its substrate, slow air‐drying, freeze‐drying from aqueous polyethylene glycol solutions and the restoration of lacquer surfaces after dehydrating the wooden substrates.
