More from the UMFA

I have been very very busy at the museum! Here are three of the objects that I have just completed mounting and conserving!

This is so funny! I took my gloves off after handling an object, I threw it down and went to work on something else.. when I came back, I noticed how the glove landed and I just had to take a picture of it! Hilarious!

Aztec Brooch and Byzantine Cross

Ushabti (these little figures are Egyptian and were buried with the dead to act as slaves and servants in the afterlife. In some Pharoahs tombs, thousands of these little statues were found!)
