South Australian Gold & Silver
Bounty takes us through a journey of South Australia’s most significant colonial gold and silversmiths including John Pace, C.E. Firnhaber, Julius Schomburgk, Henry Steiner and J.M. Wendt. The exhibition looks at different aspects of society through gold and silver – the communion silver of churches, the 1852 Adelaide gold Pound, the Friendly Society medallions, civic ceremonial regalia, as well as presentation objects for important citizens and racing events.
