Thangka conservators sought

    **** Moderator's comments: Please respond directly to the
    author.

Because I have worked on the conservation of thangkas for over 30
years, people from around the world contact me by email and
telephone with questions, sometimes several per day. Often they are
looking for a conservator in their own area, on their own continent,
for their thangka.

So that I can direct them to you, please send me your name,
location, contact information, and whether you work on thangka
paintings, mountings or both, if you take private work.

    **** Moderator's comments:   The Foundation of the American
    Institute for Conservation (FAIC) has a service called the AIC
    Guide to Conservation Services, which will help you find a
    conservator in a particular specialty and geographic area.
