A tumulus excavated in Turkey at Gordion, once the capital of the ancient Phrygian culture, revealed the burial of a powerful ruler of the late eighth or early seventh century BC. Among the artifacts retrieved were several pieces of elaborately constructed and decorated wooden furniture, all in extremely deteriorated condition. Initial stabilization of the wood by paraffin wax impregnation was not successful and subsequent treatment was undertaken several years later on a table and two screens. This required removing the wax with toluene and then consolidating the wood with Butvar B98, a polyvinyl butyral in equal parts toluene and ethanol. A different consolidant, Rutapox R1210, an epoxy resin specifically developed for severely damaged wood, was used to stabilize the table top. Due to the fragmentary and fragile condition of these three objects, they were assembled for exhibition with extensive plexiglas mounts. -- AATA
