Faced with the need to conserve objects listed as historic monuments and works in public and private collections, characterization tools and methods entered a field previously reserved for synthetic materials or geological issues. Complementary observation and analysis methods are used to refine our knowledge of materials and processing techniques or, in some cases, for dating or authentication purposes.
