Stone Conservation

Stone conservation refers to the processes and techniques used to preserve and restore stone structures, sculptures, and artifacts. It involves assessing the condition of the stone, identifying deterioration causes such as weathering or pollution, and applying methods to prevent further damage. Conservators may clean surfaces, repair cracks, and use protective coatings while ensuring that the historical and artistic integrity of the stone is maintained. The goal is to prolong the life of stone materials, protecting cultural heritage for future generations while allowing people to enjoy and learn from these valuable resources.
