The conservation of leather is a difficult field. There has been a gradual evolution in techniques and products with
many exciting developments ongoing. I teach historic preservation research, documentation, conservation and restoration techniques for
saddlery and harness. This program has been aided greatly recently by the award of a modest grant.
Special thanks go to Dr. K. Oestenstad (UoB) for generous donations from his collection.
