Description

A Joint Symposium of English Heritage and the UKIC

edited by Jeanne Marie Teutonico

This compilation of research papers contains information presented in 1996 at the Ironbridge Gorge Museum in the UK. The premise of the symposium was that there was a recognized need to improve and develop conservation knowledge and strategies for dealing with architectural ceramics, including terracotta. In addition to terracotta, papers published here reference conservation developments and practice with regard to ornamental and decorative tile, Coade Stone, and various floor tiles. Conservators involved in architectural or ceramics conservation and restoration will find the information presented here both interesting and useful.
