Abstract

Glass has been used for various purposes, including different medical purposes. The Museum of Islamic Art in Cairo contains many of these medical models. However, many damaging factors resulted in the deterioration and loss of such objects over time, as well as the self-damaging factors that stimulated the mechanical damage of these items. In view of the fact that these glass objects carry a history recorded on their surfaces that reflect the past with all its historical, artistic, humanitarian, and religious aspects, it is important to seek the best ways to preserve such precious items from extinction. The aim of this research is to study one of the models of this type of objects, and to use the best scientific methods based on a preliminary experimental restoration study including different cleaning and supporting processes.
