<p>[QUOTE="Bronwen, post: 2750053, member: 5833"]You've mentioned that it has been over fire & smoke & that you wondered whether to clean. You might have to ask a wood conservator to find out, but I wonder whether smoke, depending on what was being burned, can have corrosive elements in it. A museum wouldn't leave it uncleaned & unpolished. Some of our furniture people might have recommendations for gentle ways to de-grime.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
