Sotheby's Caring for Antiques offers accessible advice on the everyday precautions that should be taken when handling, cleaning, storing, or displaying your antiques, and also includes detailed instructions on how to recognize a variety of conditions that may require attention, from discoloration of a print to the structural deterioration of furniture and metalwork. In many cases, these problems may be arrested by the owner, but where the object appears to be in jeopardy, advice is given about when to enlist the services of a conservator, or restorer, together with a broad outline of the remedies that these professionals might be able to effect. Also included is a directory of organizations concerned with the conservation and restoration of antiques of all sorts. Sotheby's Caring for Antiques is an indispensable companion for all owners of antiques.
