Abstract:
A Hand-knotted Carpet (~1900) from Hamadan, Iran
Investigation, Concept for Conservation, and Exemplary Treatment
A private collector gave the Hamadan hand-woven carpet (~1900) to the Institute of Conservation, University of Applied Arts Vienna, to investigate and improve its condition. There is no previous documentation. In the first chapter, comparative research is used to try to determine the origin of the carpet. The materials and technology of the object were explored in the second and third chapters, and then a small section of the object is restored as a model. Using this strategy, object defects are uncovered. The conditions of surveillance are defined in chapter 4. The object is damaged in eight places. Selvage also has several abrasions. According to the carpet’s owner, the aim is to reuse the object, so restoration of the roots, tear, and selvage is prioritsed. The notion of protection in chapter 6 serves as a guideline for practical restoration in chapter 7. Traditional and academic methods are applied to restore the object in selected parts. -
