How to Replicate a Long-Lost Patterned Fabric

Описание: Note: The NPS Museum Conservation Lab's future is uncertain; it had its lease canceled by Doge, then extended by one year only.

The ‪@NationalParkService‬ Museum Conservation Lab had quite the challenge: restoring a pair of velvet armchairs from the Thomas Edison National Historical Park that had a very unique pattern. Objects conservation fellows Daisy Greenwell and Maeve O'Shea take Adam Savage through their cross-discipline problem-solving, using photography, sheet brass, a jeweler's saw and more!
