<p>[QUOTE=&quot;shamster, post: 10645802, member: 85821&quot;]Dear collectors,</p><p><br /></p><p>I have always been making mistakes in caring for objects in my collection, be it antique jewelry, boxes, ceramics… Most of the damage was done when trying to fix some imperfections, which only makes it worse. I am generally okay with signs of use &amp; wear, but when these are solely caused by my own ignorance I just can’t get over them.</p><p><br /></p><p>Do you have similar experience with things you collect and love? What do you do when that happens?Do you keep on fixing them, seek professional advice, or just live with it? I really want to learn from other collectors’ wisdom of dealing with accidental mishandling.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
