Continually adding pieces from my private collection to my shop stock and noticing how fast they sell. Many of my customers share my tasteāØ
The wonderful Green Majolica plate I took from my cupboard at home (not easy) was like it was glued to my shelf!
Included in my display and sold. I remember driving back from selling customers perfect pieces for their home in Carramut, Western District, parked outside a dealerās closed shop, rang him and waited while he drove to his shop to sell to me. Iāve so loved this piece.
Having a half price 50% off sale helped Iām sure.
The Joy Peck painting also sold while I was taking these photos (touches of green)
And the Portuguese Cabbage Ware Tureen with ladle and under plate sold too.
Iād written a story re moving onto an apartment, and how I advise people several times per week on doing so, but when was my turn, was so painful!
By the time the magazine was ready, Iād already changed three vital parts of my displays, so gave them an old story to print!
Still changing occasionally, but Iāll have Russell over soon to re take those few spots, so I can finally share with a magazine.
These are the upright shots, Iāll post the horizontal ones next..
BTW, when I close shop soon, my trading name will mainly be @allpress_creations as my writing and other business ideas and my services will be changing.

The well patinated circular top supported by a beautifully turned column, raised on three down swept cabriole legs terminating in boot feet.
The shaped legs resembling the Isle of Man flag.
The flag features three running legs bent at the knees conjoined at the centre.
Local residents of the Isle of Man explain that the legs turn anti-clockwise so that they donāt kneel to the English.
The use of the emblem on the flag in the Isle of Man dates back to the 13th Century.

After much deliberation, Iāve decided to sell a few very special pieces Iāve had at home the past 20 or more years.
This magnificent wine table is one. I simply cannot house everything Iād like to.
A late 19th Century French flame mahogany card table.
The single flame moulded top, unfolding to a card playing table, having a decorative book-matched veneered frieze, on a well turned support column, resting on three outswept legs, with acanthus leaf carvings to the knees.
Note: Not my usual stock, youāll notice the photograph. Youāll then notice this card table surrounded by entire family, from around 1900.
Fantastic to hang above to create a perfect conversation piece.
The shaped/stepped top rail, on a vase shaped centre splat, flanked by narrow rectangular uprights. Having comfortable drop-in upholstered seats, resting on slightly shaped narrow cabriole-legs, terminating on a carved goats-foot. Joined by an H and rear stretchers.
Forever changing the surroundings in my apartment. The latest change, replacing the Italian Murano glass retro penguins, for the 19th century Chinese Bronze Foo Dog Lion Figures.
Interestingly, everyone Iāve asked prefers the Murano Penguins.
The final photo is from Russell Winnell, when he photographed my apartment a couple of years ago. I wrote a story for a magazine to accompany the photos, however Iāve made so many bold changes, I canāt give those photos to print, so must get Russell back!
Iāve changed the wording on my LinkedIn profile, indicating I would like to use some of my profession as an advisor within Australia and around the world.
Iāll attach my introduction below. Iāve decided once I close shop in April, Iāll prepare to move to Sydney.
Elegant trio of vintage retro black glass birds. The black pair now joined by an off white interloper.
An interesting word to name the welcomed new addition, quite the opposite to be honest. But was just thinking of the Labor PM and Greens leader and for some reason āInterlopersā came into my mind!
However, not wanting to be political on my business page, I shall stop!
