1992 interiors and their owners; slow camera work and no music. Funny and horrifying and awkward and sweet from the BBC archive: https://t.co/xWpgMHroIF

Ancient Egyptian amulets as hand sanitizers - a thread 🧿🧼👇 @NtlMuseumsScot
The djed-pillar represented the backbone of the god Osiris and granted stability

Getting up close and personal with the Egypt collections @DumfriesMusem with @JessieMaucor - having a much nicer time than this little fellow! @NMSPartnerships #EgyptAsiaScotland

Perhaps doing focus stacking on this 19th C scarab over lunch wasn’t the best idea... 🤢 #museumphotography @DumfriesMuseum

🖐️The gloves are off! Or are they on? We’re often asked why our conservators and curators are or aren’t wearing gloves in our videos.

Our conservators explain when you should (and shouldn't!) wear gloves while handling objects in this video 🎥 ➡️ https://t.co/dUjxsIrRYd

The Wellcome Trust has put a load of its historical domestic recipe books online spanning the 16th-19th Centuries. Brilliant resource for researchers including herbal practice, food histories and use in medicine. https://t.co/xlbXVx9EZR @WellcomeLibrary

Anyone know what a conundrum stone is, especially in relation to the one in Kirkoswald Churchyard? @NTSCollections

[Fiona Carnie @fionacarnie]

Can't believe this. Can @morrisons explain why farmers only receive 11p for a bottle which costs 91p? And customers are not "giving this back" to farmers. We are paying them for their produce.

@NTSCollections The North West #ProjectReveal team are celebrating this enthusiastically with the help of #CromartyBakery!

[Indigo Carnie @IndigoCarnie]

Two distinctive #Caithness chairs at #HughMiller'sBirthplace in Cromarty - love seeing #RegionalFurniture (almost) in situ! And the unusual structure meant deviating from usual chair handling practice #FeltNaughty @NTSCollections
