Abstract Cultural heritage faces recurring degradation processes and natural aging phenomena, demanding the envisioning of innovative preservation solutions inspired by cutting‐edge scientific research. Over extended time frames, current strategies often prove inadequate in preserving different constituent materials cultural assets, which are thus threatened their inherent fragility complex interactions with surrounding environment. The distinctive properties graphene graphene‐related (GRMs) now offer unexplored opportunities field heritage, addressing various forms deterioration phenomena. This work critically analyzes early‐stage literature on use GRMs. Strengths, weaknesses, limitations anti‐corrosion, anti‐fading, consolidation GRMs thoroughly investigated, along possible applications smart sensors to monitor state health endangered artifacts. aim is elucidate how specific characteristics can be applied conservation, diagnostics, monitoring artistic archaeological assets. Future perspectives design stable, long‐lasting, compatible graphene‐based for protection highlighted, providing a detailed discussion potentials pitfalls.
