The Care of Antiques & Works Of
THE BRITISH ANTIQUE DEALERS’ ASSOCIATION The Care of Antiques & Works of Art The Care of Antiques & Works of Art Antiques have been passed down by our ancestors over the centuries to our present generation, so by their very nature have stood the test of time. They may have taken a few knocks in those earlier ages, but surprisingly, despite all our 21st-century creature comforts, it is the modern world, with its central heating and chemical cleaning products, which poses particular challenges for such objects. You may have spent a considerable sum acquiring a beautiful and valuable antique, so you do not want to throw away that investment by failing to look after it. Half the battle is knowing just when to try and remedy a defect yourself and when to leave it to the experts. Here are some basic recommendations, compiled through extensive consultation with specialists who have the greatest experience of handling antiques on a daily basis – members of The British Antique Dealers’ Association. We hope this guide helps you to decide what to do, and when. INTERNATIONAL DIVISION As specialist ﬁne art & antique Lloyd’s insurance brokers we are delighted to sponsor this BADA guide.

Repousse Work for Amateurs. : REPOUSSE WORK FOR AMATEURS: BEING THE ART OF ORNAMENTING THIN METAL WITH RAISED FIGURES. tfjLd*- 6 By L. L. HASLOPE. ILLUSTRATED. LONDON L. UPCOTT GILL, 170, STRAND, W.C, 1887. PRINTED BY A. BRADLEY, 170, STRAND, LONDON. 3W PREFACE. " JjJjtfN these days, when of making books there is no end," ^*^ and every description of work, whether professional or amateur, has a literature of its own, it is strange that scarcely anything should have been written on the fascinating arts of Chasing and Repousse Work. It is true that a few articles have appeared in various periodicals on the subject, but with scarcely an exception they treated only of Working on Wood, and the directions given were generally crude and imperfect. This is the more surprising when we consider how fashionable Repousse Work has become of late years, both here and in America; indeed, in the latter country, "Do you pound brass ? " is said to be a very common question. I have written the following pages in the hope that they might, in some measure, supply a want, and prove of service to my brother amateurs. It has been hinted to me that some of my chapters are rather "advanced;" in other words, that I have gone farther than amateurs are likely to follow me.

2014 State of Ivory Demand in China
2012–2014 ABOUT WILDAID WildAid’s mission is to end the illegal wildlife trade in our lifetimes by reducing demand through public awareness campaigns and providing comprehensive marine protection. The illegal wildlife trade is estimated to be worth over $10 billion (USD) per year and has drastically reduced many wildlife populations around the world. Just like the drug trade, law and enforcement efforts have not been able to resolve the problem. Every year, hundreds of millions of dollars are spent protecting animals in the wild, yet virtually nothing is spent on stemming the demand for wildlife parts and products. WildAid is the only organization focused on reducing the demand for these products, with the strong and simple message: when the buying stops, the killing can too. Via public service announcements and short form documentary pieces, WildAid partners with Save the Elephants, African Wildlife Foundation, Virgin Unite, and The Yao Ming Foundation to educate consumers and reduce the demand for ivory products worldwide. Through our highly leveraged pro-bono media distribution outlets, our message reaches hundreds of millions of people each year in China alone. www.wildaid.org CONTACT INFORMATION WILDAID 744 Montgomery St #300 San Francisco, CA 94111 Tel: 415.834.3174 Christina Vallianos [email protected] Special thanks to the following supporters & partners PARTNERS who have made this work possible: Beijing Horizonkey Information & Consulting Co., Ltd.

Bone, Antler, Ivory and Teeth (PDF)
Bone, Antler, Ivory, and Teeth Found in such items as tools, jewelry, and decorations Identification and General Information Items derived from skeletal materials are both versatile and durable. Bone, antler, ivory, and teeth have been used for various tools and for ornamentation. Because ivory is easily carved yet durable, it has also long been used by many cultures as a medium for recorded information. Bones and teeth from many different animals, including mammals, birds, and fish, may be found in items in all shapes and sizes. Each culture uses the indigenous animals in its region. Identifying bones and teeth used in an item can be easy or difficult, depending on how they were processed and used. Frequently, bones and teeth were minimally processed, and the surfaces are still visible, allowing identification by color (off-white to pale yellow), shape, and composition. Bird, fish, and reptile bones are usually lighter in mass and color than mammal bones. Bone and antler can be used in their natural form, or polished with sand and other abrasives to a very smooth and glossy surface. Bone is sometimes confused with ivory, which is also yellowish and compact. Sea mammal ivory, which is the prevalent source used by American Indians, is distinct in structure. Walrus ivory, the most common sea mammal ivory, has a dense outer layer and a mottled inner core. Bone and antler in archaeological collections are often burnt and can be blue black to whitish gray. Charred bone or antler can be mistaken for wood. Magnification helps to distinguish bone from similar materials, as it has a thin solid layer surrounding a porous interior structure with a hollow core where the marrow is contained.

Egyptian Culture and Trade Cultural Study
Egyptian Culture and Trade Cultural Study Take a look at the things around you. Can you spot anything that was grown or made within 10 miles of your home? Look at your clothing. How many hundreds or thousands of miles did they travel from the factory to reach you? The importance of international trade is evident everywhere you look. Trade was also important to the economies of ancient civilizations. When Egyptians first settled along the Nile, the resources of the river supplied them with what they needed to survive. Grain grew quickly in the healthy soil of the Nile, so the people had plenty to eat. The Egyptians used mud and stones found along the river to make sturdy homes and monuments. Clothing, paper, and lamp oil were all locally produced from plants and animals. Ancient Egyptians traded along the Nile Of course, ancient Egyptians soon desired River and beyond. The Nile is the winding things that could not be produced locally. blue body of water to the left. Can you guess from the map what the main route of trade from Egypt was? If you guessed the Nile River, you are correct. The Nile River is the longest river in the world. It has the unusual quality of flowing northward into the Mediterranean Sea. Access to the Red Sea and the Mediterranean Sea opened Egypt to foreign cultures and influences. Large boats made of wood navigated up the Nile and sailed throughout the region. These boats returned with items that the Egyptians desired. As Egyptian civilization developed, the need grew for better wood.

Egyptian Long-Distance Trade in the Middle Kingdom and the Evidence at the Red Sea Harbour at Mersa/Wadi Gawasis
Egyptian Long-Distance Trade in the Middle Kingdom and the Evidence at the Red Sea Harbour at Mersa/Wadi Gawasis Kathryn Bard Boston University Rodolfo Fattovich University of Naples l’Orientale Long-distance Trade in the Middle Kingdom After a period of breakdown of the centralized state in the late third millen- nium BC (the First Intermediate Period), Egypt was reunified as a result of war- fare. The victors of this warfare were kings of the later 11th Dynasty, whose power base was in the south, in Thebes. Known as the Middle Kingdom, this reunified state consolidated in the 12th Dynasty. The accomplishments of this dynasty are many, including a number of seafaring expeditions sent to the Southern Red Sea region from the harbor of Saww at Mersa/Wadi Gawasis. In the Early Middle Kingdom the reunified Egyptian state began to expand its activities outside the Nile Valley and abroad, especially for the exploitation and/or trade of raw materials used to make elite artifacts and tools, as well as timbers with which to build boats—all not available in Egypt. Copper and turquoise mines were actively exploited by expeditions in Southwestern Sinai, where extensive mines date to the Middle and New Kingdoms (Kemp 2006: 141–142; O’Connor 2006: 226). Cedar was imported in large quantities from Lebanon, and was used to make coffins for high status officials (Berman 2009), as well as to build seafaring ships that have been excavated at Egypt’s harbor on the Red Sea at Mersa/Wadi Gawasis (Bard and Fattovich 2007, 2010, 2012).

Gorham Silver: Designing Brilliance 1850–1970, May 3, 2019‐December 1, 2019
Gorham Silver: Designing Brilliance 1850–1970, May 3, 2019‐December 1, 2019 When Jabez Gorham founded a small workshop a few blocks from here in 1831, handcrafted silver spoons were a principal product of his business. When the RISD Museum acquired a Gorham spoon in 1909, it marked the beginning of a collection of works by the Gorham Manufacturing Company that today comprises nearly 5,000 objects and design drawings. This exhibition—assembled from the museum’s collection with important loans from other institutions and private collections— illuminates the heights of Gorham’s industry, ambition, artistry, technology, and innovation. The Gorham Manufacturing Company was an inimitable force in the city of Providence and around the globe, boldly growing into the largest silver company in the world. Gorham created some of the most exceptional works ever made in silver, forever changing the landscape of American decorative arts. The company also profoundly changed Rhode Island by training and employing generations of highly skilled workers and, like many local industries, leaving behind a complicated legacy. Visit the Gorham Workbench in this gallery and access the Soundwalk tour (information at right) to learn about the company’s impact on the community, labor practices, and the environment. Spanning 120 years, the objects on view here testify to the undiminished brilliance of Gorham’s workers as they collaboratively translated ideas into gleaming new realities, the restless innovation of the company’s leaders, and a dazzling array of aesthetic styles.
