An acid-free storage box or roller with conservation-safe tissue paper is the best long-term solution for storage. With proper tissue placement, the object can be supported and stabilized. Properly supporting the textile with safe materials helps to preserve the object's integrity.  

This service includes recommendations for storage location and how to handle the textile to ensure it will be safe for years to come. 

Textiles should be stored in a clean environment that is regularly dusted and vacuumed, with stable temperature and relative humidity throughout the year. Attics and basements are not ideal, as they are prone to extreme fluctuations in temperature and humidity, which can stress the fibers. Excess moisture can also encourage mold growth, causing permanent damage. Whenever possible, store objects off the floor, out of direct sunlight, and away from radiators or other heat sources to ensure their long-term preservation
