This collection is one passionate collecting couple’s visual history of 20th century ceramics, glassware, metalware and furniture. All the great periods and art movements are represented, all of it is in wonderful condition, but as they point out, lots of it was acquired for not much money. A wonderful, living collection, much of which is in daily use.
The exquisite, museum-quality objects range from the Arts and Crafts period, through Art Nouveau, Vienna Werkstaat to the Art Deco period, and are crafted by Australian and European artists, including some of the Australian Studio Potters.
