TY - GEN N1 - ill. ; 24 cm N2 - The paper concerns glass decoration on a woman’s levitté gown from 1720 (from the collection of the National Museum in Cracow, Poland), richly decorated with small pieces of faceted plate glass. The pieces of decoration were analyzed and determined using non destructive testing methods at the labs of the AGH University of Science and Technology (Akademia Górniczo-Hutnicza) in Cracow. Results have demonstrated the need to avoid cleaning by washing in water, a fact which should be drawn to the attention of conservators M3 - Text J2 - Archaeologia Polona Vol. 45 (2007) PY - 2007 EP - 170 KW - glass dress decoration KW - Polish 18th-century levitté gown KW - back-coated glass mirror KW - weathering KW - EDS KW - FTIR A1 - Greiner-Wronowa, Elżbieta A1 - Pusoska, Anna PB - Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology Polish Academy of Sciences VL - 45 CY - Warszawa SP - 163 T1 - Glass decoration on 18th century women’s gowns UR - http://www.rcin.org.pl/iae/dlibra/publication/77260 ER -
