Oops! What I really meant was invisible ink, not indelible ink...sorry!! If
anyone has any thoughts on the use of invisible ink, I 'd appreciate hearing
them.

Hi everyone
Has anyone had experience with using indelible ink to write accession
numbers on objects? A family who has many objects on loan to this museum
has asked us to look into the possibility of using the ink on their taonga
(treasures).
I would be interested in hearing what people think about this; both
ethically and in terms of conservation.
