There used to be a huge collection in the Hancock Museum, Newcastle upon Tyne, don't know if they are still there as I haven't visited for years.The largest I think is The Ware collection in Harvard 4,000 items!!
I love them! so stunning in detail.

Ivo:
And the amazing museum of natural history in Dublin. Not sure if they are on display, last time I visited the museum it was being renovated.

Baked_Beans:
