On offer in our Australian Pottery and Australiana auction is a historically signficant selection of genuine Aboriginal King and Queen plates. The collection includes three King plates and one extremely rare Queen plate, alongside an original military gorget. All pieces come from a single vendor and were original purchased at various auctions in the early 1990s.

The design of King and Queen plates was derived from the original military gorget. Colonial governors and landholders used breastplates as a tool to secure cooperation from Aboriginal people as they pushed further into the continent. The plates were awarded to those seen as chiefs, to loyal helpers and to the brave, recognising anyone whose support made European settlement easier.

Two of the King plates were presented by Alfred Walker of Innaminka Station and hold special reference to the ill-fated Burke and Wills Expedition. One King plate belonged to King Barlo, who was crowned at the Yarrabah in North Queensland in 1900. The Queen plate originates from the Bulloo Shire, South West Queensland.

This collection represents a significant chapter in Australian history. Although these are not technically Aboriginal artifacts, they are rare historic relics and offer an opportunity for collectors and institutions to secure them.
