Sažetak
The aim of the research work on the 15th c. chasuble from the parish church of St. Stephen in Motovun was to get a clearer insight into the method of its production, to decide on the method of conservation-restoration interventions, and to confrm the assumption that the chasuble was composed of segments of several items of vestment which used to belong to the parish church inventory. The research work that preceded the conservation-restoration interventions encompassed fabric identification, analyses of all fabrics and ribbons, analysis of stitching, analysis of embroidery, comparison of dimensions of all embroidered segments, and identification of insects. The embroidered crosses were separated from the rest of the chasuble to allow for a higher quality of conservation, and this also made it possible to analyse the silk velvet, the linen the embroideries were made on, the patterns drawn for the embroideries, the paper and the text, and to identify the ink. This was the frst use in Croatia of the method for testing for the presence of iron ions on paper and textile by test-paper on the basis of 4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (C24H16N2). The silk velvet was analysed in keeping with the standards recommended by the CIETA association.
The working group was composed of conservator-restorers for textile, conservator-restorers for paper, conservator-chemists and conservator-art historians. Their mutual cooperation and the analytical approach enabled them to gain insight into a range of new data, while the selected conservation-restoration procedures ensured the preservation of the historical layers of this artefact.
