Conserving textiles is perhaps the largest portion of work we do here at Spicer Art Conservation. Over the last 20+ years we have become an unrivaled expert in the treatment and care of Historic Flags, specializing in the conservation of one-of-a-kind and historically significant antique flags and banners.
But flags are not all we do. Our work in the textile conservation field is broad, we treat a diverse range of textiles composed of a variety of fabrics and materials, including (but not limited to):
- Military Uniforms
- Professional Sports Uniforms
- Historic Garments
- Costumes and Theatre Curtains
- Tapestries and Fabric Wall Coverings
- Rugs and Carpets (Oriental, Persian, Navajo, Turkish, Folk, etc.)
- Samplers and Embroideries
- Quilts and Coverlets
- Specialty textiles (such as religious items, ceremonial textiles, weavings, etc.)
