Is it some sort of bestseller book with 26 chapters? What was it bestseller in?
Is it a Stephen King novel?
Right, it’s a 26 book collection.
Nope
a clue: six colours set the way
a Lego dice? lol
Omg is it a Rubik’s Cube?
No because it has 27 pieces 
OT: These new emoti look off.
We’ll wait and see what @The_early_walker answers 
It probably is, I was making a joke.
no the rubics cube has 26 pieces (look at wiki) and we got a winner, it´s @samuel_the_leader, now you´re on 
(ot new smileys?)
Most likely because it doesn’t have a middle block.
I’m bad at setting challenges, but I’ll try:
Something that can be found in a house, but most likely found in a historian’s house.
Always placed horizontally, often straddling along the top of cupboards.
Should ideally be stored in a display case, since it collects a lot of dust. A display case is especially needed if you want to store it in the storage room.
mhh, first I thought a mirror, but the cases didn´t fit…@samuel_the_leader, this is not a question, only me guessing, @the_termin8r1, c´mon, help guessing…and @samuel_the_leader, a nice clue please?!
I don’t know. Some kinda long forgotten ancient scroll or something? 
or maybe kinda

but cases??? We need a clue…@samuel_the_leader
1 Question from my side:
Is the thing we search bringing energy to a mb TV/radio etc? Then I guess sockets?
@the_termin8r1 is the closest, but the clue is it always placed horizontally at all cost, a scroll can be placed vertically. (There’s a reason for the always horizontal position)
And @The_early_walker is just completely off.
The thing is like a relique/artefact, but is not really one; it’s more of a ‘representation’, some museums use them for ‘illustrative purposes’.
Ok wasn’t clear about it being found in the house. I mean it can be found in the house, doesn’t mean it would be found in the house. I mean the owner can legally have it in the house in all countries. @The_early_walker I don’t think you’ll ever find it in your house, more like to find it in @the_termin8r1’s, doesn’t mean you’ll definitely find it in your house @the_termin8r1.
And no u don’t need a socket @The_early_walker, maybe for the lighting of the optional display case
I doubt that.
Is it a carpet of some sort?
No, seriously why would you want to put carpet in a display case, the thing I am thinking of is more important than that. (Why’d you think it may be in a museum?)
(*More likely) typo my bad
An old fashioned compass of some sort?
I don’t know I give in…
You forgot this clue. It’s a long object. You’re closer than you think, don’t give up now.
