Continually adding pieces from my private collection to my shop stock and noticing how fast they sell. Many of my customers share my taste✨
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 dealer’s closed shop, rang him and waited while he drove to his shop to sell to me. I’ve so loved this piece.
Having a half price 50% off sale helped I’m 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.
