Proving The Impossible: The Leontiasis Ossea Case
"We had reached out to multiple institutions and museums for consultation, all of whom said that the resin needed to be removed, but they had no idea if it would be possible. So we reached out to an expert in skeletal restoration."
— The Bone Museum
The intervention involved reversing legacy, non-archival resin applications that other institutions had deemed impossible to remove safely. Through meticulous, non-destructive chemical and physical stabilization, the specimen was successfully conserved to museum-grade stability for ongoing institutional research.
