Following conservation, a protective covering was measured from optium museum acrylic. This material was donated by TruVue as part of the Icon Tru Vue Conservation and Exhibition Grant and was supplied by Larson-Juhl with fabrication and installed by Dauphin.
The new casing will ensure Squire Cooke’s clock is protected for future generations.
Squire Cooke’s clock is now back on display, offering a fascinating glimpse into the museum building’s past. As the only surviving piece of furniture from Thomas Cooke’s Georgian mansion, it plays a key role in bringing the building’s 18th-century history to life.
