Soho Foundry Sovereign Hill Ballarat Australia Thimble Steam Engine Factory 1795

This is a souvenir brass thimble from Soho Foundry Sovereign Hill (Ballarat Australia) that measures 5/8" tall x 5/8" diameter. The top reads, "Soho Foundry Sovereign Hill" and has picture of a foundry tower. The company was founded in 1795 and produced steam engines. They were an important part of the Industrial Revolution . The Soho Foundry was planned with a degree of sophistication unprecedented for a factory of its time. Its products were produced out of standardised interchangeable parts, reducing the need to supervise work as it was executed.
