Did you know? Homemade playing cards were common in the late 18th century. We've recently acquired a deck that was hand-drawn and painted. Likely inspired by Hall & Son (c.1815) or Thomas Crewick (c.1830). See them at Bath Assembly Rooms in 2027. #GeorgianEra #MuseumObjects

To mark #WorldEnvironmentDay and Day 1 of #MuseumWeek2023, we've chosen to highlight our wooden gannet. Carved by local artist Peter Boex, it serves as a reminder of the 1967 Torrey Canyon disaster - the UK's largest oil spill. #Museums4Impact #MuseumObjects @MuseumWeek @UNESCO

May is almost over & we're into a patch of lovely sunny weather, perfect for a leisurely cruise along the Forth & Clyde Canal. This postcard was sent in May 1905, and shows the 'May Queen' with her passengers at Cadder, do you recognise the spot? #May #MuseumObjects #BoatTrip

🏺🎨🍷 This week our content creator @_danielparry & Lecturer @newobnomis have been cataloging around 180 objects with the @GNM_Hancock as part of the @GrowStoryWeb project - exploring how museum collections, images and sounds can help us make sense of global issues like #climatechange. In this clip you can see: an Ancient Greek mirror handle, a Gorgon mask, a Chinese ink block, and an Ancient Greek wine cup. #museums #culture #museumobjects #ancienthistory #ancientgreece #gorgon
