Vivienne Foley’s ‘Sinuous Vase’ (1998) is on show in our Terrace Room. It sits on a Marsh & Tatham bookcase made for George IV for Carlton House and its backdrop is a tapestry that he gave to Lady Hertford as a token of love. @LeedsMuseums #porcelain #rethinkceramics
Upcoming talk on the Forest of Knaresborough, Past, Present and Future: zerocarbonharrogate.org.uk/knaresborough-…
Temporary removal of a carved armorial shield mounted high near Great Hall @TempleNewsam out of harm's way while some wiring work is done.....close inspection, some lifting paint to attend to, with Lascaux acrylic polymer.
The Bionic Chair, a short grain nightmare with some bad breaks, needed for Fantastical Beasts exhibition @TempleNewsam is coming together, with the help of some epoxy reinforced glass fibre rods, and carvable epoxy paste for infilling small losses. Oh, yes, and fish glue.
Happy Darwin Day to all my followers! One of history's greatest kickers at darkness, to paraphrase the great songwriter Bruce Cockburn @CockburnQuotes "got to kick a the darkness 'til it bleeds daylight"

Are you a conservator who works on gilded wood? If so, please take a moment to answer our survey. We’re developing a project on cleaning systems for wooden gilded surfaces & your responses will help us better assess needs and identify cleaning systems. bit.ly/2D5UaGY
More conservation repairs in the Great Hall @TempleNewsam during closed season work, another mock Jacobean lozenze to glue back on, and the front door handle to repair, both fitted again.
