artifacts conservation

Artifact conservation is the practice of preserving and protecting historical objects, such as artwork, tools, or documents, from damage and deterioration. Conservators assess an artifact's condition, using specialized techniques and materials to repair or stabilize it without altering its original features. This work helps ensure that future generations can appreciate and learn from these items. Conservation involves careful handling, environmental control, and sometimes restoration, all aimed at maintaining the artifact’s integrity and historical value while allowing it to be displayed or studied safely.
