Vanished Delft is an exhibition of contemporary objectmaking in rooms once home to one of New Zealand’s most extravagant collections of furniture and fittings. Today, this late 19th-Century Italianate mansion, Pah Homestead, is again home to a collection; the Wallace Trust’s extensive holdings of contemporary New Zealand art.

For the period of the exhibition, the finely carved marble mantelpieces of the Ballroom and Drawing Room will be populated with domestic accoutrements. The Wallace Trust’s collection of Arts and Crafts furniture will be pressed into service to act as plinths to an extensive display of handmade material culture of a contemporary kind.
