Recently, Fine Art Shippers delivered a large collection of about 2000 masks and artifacts to the Crow Museum of Asian Art of the University of Texas at Dallas. Someone donated the whole collection to the well-known institution, and our team was honored to provide a safe trip for quite a few valuable and fragile items. Not only do we specialize in packing and shipping individual pieces, but we can also organize dedicated rides to assist our clients with the transportation of entire art collections. Let’s get a closer look at how we were shipping masks and other antiques to the museum.
Shipping Masks and Artifacts for the Crow Museum of Asian Art
To complete such a taxing task, our whole Fine Art Shippers team arrived in York, Pennsylvania, to prepare antiques for transportation to Dallas, Texas. There is almost a 1,400-mile distance between the cities, which motivated us to create packaging that would withstand physical damage and weather conditions. Besides, we used a 26 ft truck to place all the items inside – that’s how our handlers managed to pack and deliver all the objects without much fuss.
Shipping masks and artifacts of such quantity and quality was an invaluable experience that you don’t encounter so often. The history and origin behind the collection is yet another story to tell, but you might want to visit the Crow Museum of Asian Art by yourself in the future to learn more about the artworks we shipped.
Such big-scale projects require a monstrous amount of human energy and attention to be implemented and fulfilled successfully. These are moments when you make the most out of your team and equipment; otherwise, shipping masks would take much longer. Luckily, Fine Art Shippers consists of dedicated professionals with extensive experience and useful skills needed for completing the job in the shortest possible time without neglecting the quality of work.
Fine Art Shippers thanks the Crow Museum of Asian Art of the University of Texas at Dallas for the trust and the opportunity to become part of the big museum project. Our whole team looks forward to working with the museum in the future. And if you need professional art services right now, don’t hesitate to contact us to tell your story and request our professional help.
