Abstract

Studies were conducted on manufacturing techniques by applying microscopy and conservation treatments on the annals of Joseon dynasty storage box at the National Museum of Korea. The results revealed that lime tree wood(Tilla spp.) was used to make the annals of Joseon dynasty storage box. Lacquering techniques were used to coat the box with a layer of lacquer and bone ash and then cover it with traditional Korean paper. After being covered with traditional Korean paper, more layers were applied in the following sequence: mud ashes, black lacquer, pure lacquer, and black lacquer. Before conservation treatments, some components and lacquer layers were missing in addition wood joint were loose. Therefore, conservation and restoration should be conducted based on the identified wood and by observing the shape of the remaining components.

국립중앙박물관 소장품인 조선왕조실록상자(고적 25247)에 사용된 목재의 수종식별과 칠층의 특징을 관찰하고, 보존처리 과정 및 결과를 소개 위하여 본 연구를 실시하였다. 조사결과 실록상자의 제작에는 피나무과의 피나무속(Tilia spp.)의 목재가 사용되었다. 표면의 칠기법은 목재 위에 골회를 칠하고 닥나무속(Broussonetia spp.) 인피섬유로 제작한 한지를 덧바른 뒤 다시 토회칠, 흑칠, 정제옻칠, 흑칠 순서로 제작하였다. 보존처리 전 실록상자의 상태는 짜임이 벌어지고, 칠이 벗겨져 있었으며 장석이나 족대 등 일부 부재가 사라진 상태이었다. 이러한 손상부위는 아교 및 토회로 강화처리하여 안정적인 상태가 되도록 수리하였고, 결실부는 수종분석 결과와 남아있는 부재의 형태를 바탕으로 최대한 원형에 가깝게 복원하였다. 이를 통해 실록상자의 기초적인 제작방법을 파악할 수 있었다.
