Subject: Iron gall ink on parchment
I'm looking for information about treatment of iron gall ink on parchment support. Has anyone treated manuscripts on parchment where the ink perforated the parchment support? I'm interested in mending techniques, but also, if in your opinion it's possible, in how to slow this kind of process. I found a lot about iron gall ink on paper, not as much about ink on parchment. **** Moderator's comments: See, of course, the Iron Gall Ink Corrosion web site <URL:http://www.knaw.nl/ecpa/ink/> and INKCORROSION-L <URL:http://listserv.surfnet.nl/archives/inkcorrosion-l.html"> Chiara Cavallero paper conservator Via S.Secondo 18 Magliano Alfieri (CN) Italy *** Conservation DistList Instance 15:55 Distributed: Friday, February 8, 2002 Message Id: cdl-15-55-017 ***Received on Wednesday, 6 February, 2002
