Medieval gold washing tools

 
The Golden World displays a unique collection of medieval gold washing tools. This collection consists of about 30 items and pieces of equipment, crafted by special joiner Juhani Lahdelma, based on the drawins in ”De Re Metallica” by Georgius Agricola. This is the first text book on geology with detailed descriptions and measures of gold washing tools.
