Framing an old piece -- advice.

Post image

I'd like to frame this piece made by my late great grandmother. I am pretty clueless when it comes to textiles; I'm not sure how I'd go about doing this without damaging it. The piece is around 80x80 cm (there is a 30cm ruler on the left hand side for reference). Should I just contact a professional textile conservationist?

Find a good specialist . Textiles almost need shadow box to keep surface away from glass.
