The IHA Collection of Aluminium Objects

The IHA has brought together around 700 objects illustrating different uses of aluminium and its alloys. The objects in the collection are in large part from donations or objects that have been saved from being lost.

In this sense these archives do not constitute a "collection" in the strict sense, however set does however contain interesting pieces such as a Paco Rabanne dress in aluminium from 1966, industrial samples, medals, and promotional items, etc.
