Query

[edit]

 Done

Should "owner by his cousin" be "owned by his cousin"? If not perhaps the words "on his behalf" would help? ϢereSpielChequers 09:35, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

yes, owned. Ceoil (talk) 10:53, 21 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

preservation

[edit]

This carving is over 500 years old, it was nearly 400 years old when the British Museum received it. The time it spent under protective glass at Waddesdon would be less than a tenth of its pre Museum history. So why "the more complex pieces were encased in protective glass cases, which largely explain why they are in such good condition"? ϢereSpielChequers 00:30, 27 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, and have removed the claim. Ceoil (talk) 17:46, 28 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
