  • An Exploration of Social Status Through the Rouse Hill House Jewellery Collection, 1801 to 1924
    Hidden Jewellery Revealed: an exploration of social status through the Rouse Hill House jewellery collection, 1801 to 1924. Julie Oliver A thesis in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy School of Art and Design August 2020 Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Australia's Global UNSW University SYDNEY Surname/Family Name Oliver Given Name/s Julie Gai Abbreviation for degree as give in the University calendar MPhil Faculty Art and Design School Art and Design Thesis Title Hidden Jewellery Revealed: an exploration of social status through the Rouse HIii House jewellery collection, 1801 to 1924. Abstract 350 words maximum: (PLEASE TYPE) Rouse Hill House is an early colonial mansion on the outskirts of Sydney built by Richard and Elizabeth Rouse, free settlers from England, who arrived in Sydney in 1801. Six generations of the Rouse family lived in the house between the 1820s and the 1970s, when it was bought by the New South Wales Government and turned into a museum. Hidden in the drawers of what once was the servants' quarters is a collection comprising over 150 pieces of mostly costume jewellery. Through a detailed study of the Rouse jewellery collection, this research project explores the importance of social status for early free settlers in Australia. Such a collection is rare indeed in Australia. Although the jewellery was itemised when the house was sold, this is the first time that the collection has been discussed in its entirety. This thesis reveals the needs, pleasures and aspirations of a colonial Australian family, seen through the eyes of their jewellery, supported by literature from various sources including art, design, archaeology and sociology.

Her love of colour and festive trimmings, largely forgotten, was subsumed in her own presentation of her tragic condition after Prince Albert’s death. The exhibition in 2010 at The Queen’s Gallery, Buckingham Palace, on Victoria and Albert as collectors, showed by contrast the happy days of her marriage, when her jewels, rather than commemorating death, reflected her relationship with her husband and family.1 This essay looks at the story of Victoria and Albert through the jewellery they commissioned, gave to each other and wore on every kind of occasion.
