Abstract:The embroidered boots of the Southern and Northern Dynasties are precious collections in Gansu Provincial Museum. Their overall shape is basically complete, but local contamination, incompleteness and decay are serious and the boots continue to deteriorate. Therefore, a conservation and restoration plan was formulated, and rescue conservation and restoration were carried out for this set of textile cultural relics. The brocade embroidered boots are three-dimensional textile cultural relics, and their conservation and restoration is more complex and difficult compared to that of flat ones. Based on the excavation and research on the cultural value such as the weaving and embroidery technology and pattern style of the brocade embroidered boots, non-destructive testing was done to determine their various diseases and causes, fabric types, dyes, contaminants, etc. Also carried out was a detailed analysis and sorting of the conservation and restoration methods used, restoration difficulties, and process flow. This study provides reference experience and an example of the conservation and restoration of three-dimensional textile cultural relics of the same type.
