“…This is because textiles are very prone to ageing causes photochemical degradation to vulnerable dyes and fibre mainly due to oxidation (Cybulska & Wrzosek, 2007). The change of tensile properties of natural fibre due to physical and chemical degradation which can cause bonds to break that damage the structure of the material (Cakan et al, 2015;Koperska et al, 2014). Furthermore, the artefacts experienced a biological attack by insects such as cockroaches and cloth moths which can be seen in the characteristics of the holes on the artefacts.…”

This paper discusses the physical deterioration of the two traditional Malay textile Songkets preserved by the Department of Museums Malaysia. The identification of material and degradation were investigated by using visual observation and scientific analysis. The visual observation was carried out to analyse the physical appearance by examining the characteristics, colour visualization, and the degree of deterioration of the textiles with the aid of a handheld optical digital microscope to capture the tangible characteristics and damages on the artefacts. Scientific analysis was carried out by using the FTIR instrument to determine the materials of two traditional Malay textile Songkets. The selections were controlled by the colour selection, type, form, style, and the material of the artefacts. The results show that both artefacts were made from silk and experienced physical deterioration. However, the degree of degradation was even more pronounced for Case Study 2 (CS2) although the material is the same. Furthermore, a distinct poor condition could be seen in Case Study 2 (CS2) in comparison to the condition of Case Study 1 (CS1).
