Conservation and Analysis of the Witcombe Cabinet

Dates: 22.11.2008 to 31.5.2009. The Witcombe Cabinet, is one of the rare and magnificent English ivory-ground japanned cabinet on a carved and silvered wooden stand from c.1700, earlier this year it was conserved in the furniture conservation workshop on behalf of one of our regional-partner museums, the Holburne Museum of Art in Bath. Following completion of the work, the cabinet became a principal focus piece for the Chinese Whispers exhibition at the Brighton Royal Pavilion; however, it returns again to the Wallace Collection to feature in a special six-month Conservation Gallery display.
