Miniature urn, Ashes of Australian Cricket, 1935. Limestone, hard wood and red gum wood. Design: basically a tomb on a flat piece of 'ground', the latter shaped as the end portion of a cricket bat, carved from a block of coraline Mount Gambia limestone said to be over 2,000,000 years old. At one corner of the tomb flies the Australian flag (paper) and decorating one side is a bat. At the entrance are a pair of wickets and at the other end, on the protruding piece of 'ground' is a cricket pitch. Below, the base is of fiddle-back hardwood and the separate cover, whose handle is a ball, is carved from red gum wood to represent the outline of australia. Incised on the cover is the inscription: England v Australia/Test Cricket/1935/Ashes (enclosed in the outline of a boomerang)/1935. Underneath the cover is stamped: W C TOROBE. Designed and executed by an unkown cricketer who for thirty years took an active part in cricket in South australia.
