Dragon Stone 1100AD from Bolton Museum
01
Before treatment
The dragon stone is from a grave slab during the building of the Parish Church in 1866 in Bolton. A child was using a chalk to draw lines on the grave slab that is currently on exhibition and open for people to touch in Bolton Museum.
02
Removing the drawing
I used a plaster eraser to remove the chalk mark. It easily came off by just rubbing the plaster eraser on the area.
03
Clean the surface and area around it
After using the plaster rubber, I used a shaving brush to clean the surface. Then I used the conservation vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attached onto it to clean the surface and the area underneath the stone
04
After Treatment
All clean and good to go!
