Cherished objects and family heirlooms hold a special place in our lives. Whether they are personal letters, grandmother’s silverware, or the favorite stuffed animal from your childhood, these items all have significance and are part of your cultural heritage. Caring for Your Cherished Objects: The Winterthur Guide provides practical information about what you should and shouldn’t do to prolong the life of your objects, including advice about proper storage and display. The book will help you to assess your possessions, understand which objects are most vulnerable, and avoid the situations that will put them at more risk. Illustrations demonstrate the kinds of problems you may see on your own items or warning signs that indicate that some sort of action—whether preventive, conservative, or restorative—is warranted. Learn the difference between those terms. Sidebars in each chapter address the science behind the whys and hows to caring for the wide range of specific kinds of objects covered—from ephemera, documents, books, works of art on paper, photographs, and organic objects to textiles, ceramics, glass, metal objects, furniture, and frames. Included are the procedures that can be safely done by an owner as well as those that require the services of conservation professionals. So that you aren’t left to wander the Internet, a Resources section provides a list of reliable professional organizations as well as suggested readings, websites, and lists of suppliers to aid you in caring for your cherished objects. The authors of Caring for Your Cherished Objects are highly trained, experienced experts who have cared for thousands of precious objects and have a passion for the topic. In addition to caring for the collection at Winterthur Museum, Garden & Library, they teach, consult, and lecture on the care of cultural heritage to students, professionals, and the public.

"The purpose of this book is to provide practical information so that you can care for your objects in an informed manner. The first line of defense is always preventive conservation. Knowing what you should and shouldn't do is crucial. Knowledge of materials is also of paramount importance in helping you understand how objects change over time and what the susceptibilities to damage might be. Finally, advice about proper storage and display will aid in providing an environment that is conducive to prolonging the life of your objects. Also included in our discussions are the procedures that can be safely done by an owner as well as those that require the services of conservation professionals"--

Jay Garfinkel brings the reader with him on a journey of encounters with thirty- three families who have lost a loved one in a terror attack. The heirloom they inherited is a physical reminder of lives cut off too soon, violently and unexpectedly. This unique book contains photographs of the personal belongings of individuals murdered in terror attacks in Israel. It allows the family members to preserve a part of their legacy in the form of a fine art photograph of their cherished object. The subtitle of the book Memory and Cherished Objects was selected, says Garfinkel, because "the person we have lost will not make any new memories, so we need to create a space for them in our life. Heirlooms create a space where memory happens".While this book is about the Israeli experience, it should be read by anyone who knows someone who has experienced a sudden tragic loss; a spouse or parent we love dying suddenly and unexpectedly, leaving us with inconsolable grief. Though the 33 families are Israelis, Garfinkel makes its message universal by providing a road map for anyone, anywhere, to see how others faced bereavement with resilience and optimism.
