Preliminary assessment
on the state of conservation
View of object’s fragments

The object is in a fragmentary state.
The counted fragments are 22: each fragment is covered from flinty and calcareous coherent incrustation.
Part of the fragments that compose the base of the object are already assembled, probably with vinyl glue.


Restoration plan
Cleaning: For the removal of the calcareous incrustations has been used a resin with ionic exchange (Descialbante 90) contextually to a mechanical cleaning.
For the flinty incrustations in addition to the mechanical cleaning has been used of the acetic acid, diluted at 5%.

Disassembling the pieces: Cause the presence of a previous assemblage of fragments that compose the base, made with a not adequate glue (vinyl), the disassembling of the fragments has been proceeded using hot water.

Assemblage: Has been proceeded initially with the assemblage of the fragments of the base, subsequently with those that connect the base with the superior parts of the object.

Completing missing parts: During the assemblage we have been able to reconstruct the object using an original fragment. Missing parts have been reconstructed using the "'integrante a cera I 76".

Final protection: Has been passed, with a brush, PRIMAL diluted at 2%, to facilitate the cleaning of deposits of dust on the surface of the object.
