Methods and possibilities for conservation of antique wooden floor in Poland – theory and practice
Journal Title: Annals of WULS, Forestry and Wood Technology; Zeszyty naukowe SGGW - Year 2016, Vol 96, Issue 1
Abstract
Antique wooden floors with decorative panel parquets have different preservation condition as well as historic and artistic values. Therefore, renovation and conservation works must be adjusted to a various level of wear and tear of floor or parquet. The conservation may involve only minor repairs with the use of materials and techniques similar to the original ones. In some extreme cases it may also involve restructuring of floor or parquet. The purpose of the research is to analyse the conservation methods of antique wooden floors in Poland on historic and modern examples to recommend the applications of specific materials and repair techniques. The article presents legal grounds for antique floor conservation as well as the analysis of case studies of the best known executions while taking into consideration their effectiveness. It also presents the issue related to the prevention of damage to antique wooden floors on Polish and European markets. Keywords:
