It was but the beginning of a long series of exhibitions until such trade marts became a regular institution. The next exhibition to follow the Great Exhibition of 1851 was held two years later in Ireland. It was fitly called a Great Industrial Exhibition and was supported and patronised by Queen Victoria who lent many inter- esting objects of art and jewellery. Among the exhibits loaned were some beautiful treasure which had been presented to the Queen by the East India Company (who had then n...ofc surrendered the control of India to the Crown) ; they included a powder horn richly set with jewels, a shoulder belt, and three small bullet boxes edged with gold work and set with jewels. There was a charming little gold kettle-drum beautifully ornamented with gold and precious stones. Many of the gold ornaments which had been shown by the Queen at the Great Exhibition in London were loaned to the Committee of the Irish Exhibition. There were some exhibits of royal jewels and some jewellery which had been presented by European sovereigns to different noted persons.
