Archival 5-Sided Painted Base Pedestal Case

Does your collection require the highest level of protection when on display? Made in the U.S. by the leading museum case fabricator, these archival cases meet the exacting standards of conservators, curators and archivists. They exceed basic display cases in a number of ways.

Artifacts are safely displayed in a controlled environment made from inert materials. Cured silicone gaskets isolate the interior from external dust and other pollutants.

This design offers a full 360-degree viewing. Vitrines are optically clear 1/4 in. acrylic with museum-grade polished joints. Vitrine joints are chemically welded, stronger than the acrylic itself. Vitrines are held in a unique welded aluminum frame with special security screws. Lift-off vitrines are available in two heights. UV filtering acrylic is available as an option.

High-density ethafoam decks are fabric wrapped. Museum-grade linen fabric in your choice of 7 colors. (View Colors) Decks are removable and feature a proprietary, adjustable leveling system. Desiccant tiles or packs may be inserted under the deck. For the ultimate case an optional desiccant chamber accessed through a hinged and locked panel in the pedestal allows desiccant servicing without removing the vitrine and artifacts.

Pedestal bases have the quality of fine furniture.   All pedestal bases are fitted with levelers that adjust for variations in the floor. 

Specify a low VOC paint finish in any solid color. Choose any color from Sherwin Williams, Benjamin Moore, or Glidden.  Submit the brand and color name or color number and it can be matched.

One maintenance kit is included with each case order.
