Lyall's Jewellery Shop, Heritage jewellery shop in Charters Towers, Australia
The 4.2-meter-wide masonry structure at 90 Mosman Street features large curved plate glass windows and an elaborate Victorian-style storefront.
David Lyall established this jewellery shop in 1897 during the Charters Towers gold rush period when the city became Queensland's second largest settlement.
The store's architecture and design reflect the prosperity of late nineteenth-century gold mining communities in northern Queensland through its refined commercial features.
The building, owned by the National Trust of Australia, remains a commercial property with exterior views available to the public without admission fees.
The curved plate glass display windows represent the only known surviving example of this architectural element in Queensland's commercial buildings.
