How do I care for my new Vietnamese folk art purchase?
Caring for your Vietnamese folk art purchase requires a delicate balance of preservation and display. Many Vietnamese folk art pieces are made from natural materials such as wood, lacquer, and silk, which can be sensitive to light, moisture, and temperature changes.To maintain the beauty and integrity of your piece, it's essential to store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid placing your folk art near heating or cooling vents, fireplaces, or drafty windows, as these can cause warping, cracking, or fading. If your piece is made from lacquer, avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity levels, as this can cause the finish to crack or peel.For displaying your Vietnamese folk art, consider using a soft, padded backing board to prevent scratching or denting. Avoid hanging the piece in areas with high foot traffic or where it may be subject to sudden impacts. If you need to dust your piece, use a soft, dry cloth and avoid applying too much pressure, which can damage the intricate details or lacquer finish.For specific care instructions for certain types of Vietnamese folk art, such as ceramics or textiles, please refer to our dedicated care guides.
