摘要：The Bogišić library and museum in Cavtat include a collection of 55 ethnographic objects from Konavle, Dubrovnik region, Lika, Bosnia, Herzegovina and Albania. They are parts of men's and women's dress and jewelry from the 19th century. As many of the objects were kept in a very damaged condition, twelve of them were entrusted in 1978 to the Ethnographic museum in Zagreb for restoration. Three objects, two women's and one girl's headdress, were in such condition that not only regeneration and restoration, but also reconstruction of certain parts was needed. The author of the article describes the detailed process by which these scarfs were reconstructed. Not only their shape, but also their texture, color and decoration matched the original ones. The condition in which these ethnographic specimens were found is another example that the restoration departments of many museums in Croatia are inefficient.
