About Conservation of Furniture and Related Objects, FdA - at West Dean College
Programmes in Furniture and Related Objects encompass both making and conservation. You can expect a strong emphasis on developing good hand skills underpinned by theoretical study. Students on all programmes are encouraged to understand historic craft practice in order to place their own work in a historical context.
Practical work
All courses place significant emphasis on developing hand skills through practical work.
Materials Science
Your interpretation of historic objects will be underpinned by developing an understanding of both structural and decorative materials: their properties, identification, degradation and stabilisation.
Preventive Conservation
You will develop your knowledge of preventive care, including handling, packing, storage and display. You will have your own bench with space for your tools and access to a fully-equipped laboratory for analysis and microscopy. This allows you to fully immerse yourself and study at your own pace.
