Restoration of a Chinese Coromandel lacquer screen, 17th century, by Caroline Hantz, who is wiping the screen with a cloth soaked in vaseline and alcohol, to polish the varnish. The restoration work is taking place at Ateliers A Brugier, on Rue de Sevres in Paris, France, who have specialised in lacquerwork since 1920. Picture by Manuel Cohen
