Wow, so many years ago. It’s funny you know, my memorie’s shisen, due to an accident 31 years ago.
But as soon as I saw this advertisement, I knew where I purchased each piece and who I sold them to.
Even the portrait hanging, I remember was selling for Bryan Collie, Melbourne Fine Art Gallery, a very supportive business and personal friend right from the start 1990.
Actually I was selling the buffet decor for another great friend that taught me so much for many years.

Sold this beautiful vintage/retro pastel nude of a reclining woman. I hadn’t posted before, too much to do sometimes.
I really love this painting. Great focus on her beauty and form, with perfect highlights and shading. Also the slightly damaged frame and mount.

Forty-seven years ago, I started my journey with an after-school job at the local antique shop. Since then, I’ve spent 36 wonderful years running my own business—and now, I have decided to close my retail business and start a new chapter.
This business has been a true passion. I’ve loved every part of it: helping customers find that perfect piece, restoring beloved furniture, making drawers glide like new, and offering advice on arranging homes. Most of all, I’ve cherished the conversations with locals—and their dogs! That part, I’ll miss the most.
