Dear Christina,
A very fragile textile can only be displayed horizontally, in my
opinion.

Dear Colleagues,
from your experience, is it better to display a very brittle and
fragile archaeological textile vertically in a pressure mount or
horizontally in a display case? - when space availability is not an
issue.
