Restoration of paper works
Gravures, lithographies, estampes, cartes anciennes, affiches : les documents sur papier vieillissent mal. Taches, jaunissement, déchirures, moisissures, anciens montages acides… Ces dégradations s'aggravent avec le temps, mais la plupart se traitent.
Je me suis formée pendant deux ans à la restauration des documents graphiques au Centre de Formation à la Restauration du Patrimoine Écrit (CFRPE) de Tours.
Chaque intervention commence par une analyse du document : nature du papier, procédé d'impression, type de dégradations. Je définis ensuite un protocole adapté, nettoyage, décollage, renforcement ou doublage, en n'utilisant que des produits réversibles, qui respectent l'œuvre et garantissent sa bonne conservation dans le temps.
You are not in Dunkirk?
Unframed works on paper travel well. You can entrust your document to me wherever you are in France.
Send me photos (front, back, damaged areas, dimensions): I will give you a first opinion and an estimate.
Send the document in a rigid tube or flat, depending on its condition. I will confirm the quote upon receipt.
I will return it to you restored, via insured shipping (return shipping costs are your responsibility).
