Description
Benjamin Franklin claimed “Nothing in life is certain except death and taxes” and nothing could have been truer at the pinnacle of the 1850s Victorian Gold Rush for those who took part in the Eureka Stockade. Defying the payment of taxes, it symbolised an early moment of Aussies sticking it to the man and winning the people’s affection over tyranny.
Eureka is gold and bold and is the latest brick-weave in the Joe Bananas collection. Bright gold threads overlap darker gold and deep caramel to conjure the vision of bullion, making you look a million bucks!
