History

Colin Stewart and Allan Cameron Harley were the proprietors of The Sun Foundry, Adelaide. Originally from Glasgow, the two set up The Sun Foundry to supply the evergrowing market for their craft in 19th century, Australia. Their designs represent a "gracious era" where people took time to produce high quality and long lasting decorative items.
