In a darkened room, 365-nanometer long wave UV lamps reveal alterations to oil paintings, such as overpainting, repairs and false signatures that are normally invisible in daylight. Anyone who is collecting or restoring fine art, furniture, clocks, books, bronzes, ivory, porcelain, china, decoys, etc., should first examine the work to see what may have been done previously. Informed decisions can then be made regarding any purchase or restoration. When framing paper-borne art it is wise to check for active fungi, which can cause foxing (small dark spots) on the paper art. No dealer, collector, or restorer in art or artifacts should be without this valuable aid. See our article on the use of UV light for inspecting art for more information.
UV Blocking eye protection is recommended for anyone working with ultraviolet sources, and essential when using shortwave (254nm) ultraviolet lamps to prevent burning to unprotected eyes and skin. UV Blocking eyewear also minimizes "blue haze" interference associated with long wave ultraviolet.
