Abstract
This article covers textile storage at the Henry Francis duPont Winterthur Museum. There are eight separate rooms for the storage of curtains, bedspreads, rugs, rolled textiles, fringes and tapes, slip seats, and textilestudy pieces. Specific measurements are given plus notation of any modifications which may prove helpful to those designing new storage facilities. There are seventeen illustrations showing the floor plans for storage plus details and overviews of each of the storage rooms.
