A question of material preperation really.

I am considering removing the Kelling Hall collection of Sumatran weapons from my office to a large board in the living room, next to the fireplace.

Is there treatment or preparation I need to consider for the horn, timber, coral and bamboo parts of these weapons that I should consider if displayed next to a heat source like the fireplace?

Thanks in advance.
