Chinese Ink Paintings
Chinese ink paintings are most commonly done on rice paper and mounted onto silk scrolls. These materials are delicate by nature and require extra precaution during restoration work.
We work closely with a Chinese Scroll Mounter to offer professional services for Chinese ink paintings, silk scroll-mounting and mounting artworks on paper.
Common Signs of Degradation
Chinese paintings are prone to stains, pigment losses, flaking pigments, and creases or tears. Silk scroll mounts degrade, resulting in tears, losses, stains and yellowing. With proper treatment, such signs of degradation can be minimized.
