Subject: Carved wooden relief
I would definitely advise against applying any oil to the relief, since this might make later repairs with adhesives very difficult, if not impossible. I would suggest to seal the relief in an airtight container (a vapour barrier plastic bag will probably do) with a humidity buffer pre-conditioned to the desired humidity. Frank D.
