Art & Heritage Collections
The aim of the Heritage Furniture Collection is to showcase and preserve the changing styles of educational furniture through the years. Some items date back to the establishment of the University in 1874 and include the work of master craftsmen of that era. While many pieces from the collection are in storage, Art & Heritage Collections believe it is important for items to continue to be used and enjoyed for their functional and aesthetic qualities. This means you will find a selection of pieces throughout the University, with their history and superior design helping to enhance the working spaces around campus. The collection also includes modern pieces of furniture. Anna Rivett, Collections Officer, Art & Heritage Collections
