Last year, the New Brunswick Museum consulted with miniatures
specialist conservator Carol Aiken regarding conservation of several
miniature portraits in our collection. She was able to source
replacement glass of the appropriate colour, size and curvature in
the US. Her e-mail address is carol.aiken<-at->verizon<.>net
