Melbourne

A Guy Boyd tiled coffee table showing a map of Australia with pictures of various animals painted on the tiles before firing. Circa 1950 or thereabouts. Very MCM. Some gorgeous mid Victorian australian cedar furniture from my great grandmother's house, the cedar came from Richmond/Grafton in NSW back before those trees were almost completely wiped out by commercial logging. A couple of dot paintings that I got in Alice Springs back in the 80s cos I really liked them. Quite a few of my mother's paintings showing birds n animals n plants from along Merri Creek and down on Westernport - mostly done post 1980. Not much else that's specifically 'Australian' as such.
Dad's side of the family was nomadic - where they hung their hat was home and they went all over the world, so quite a lot of keepsakes from all over but very little from Aus. Which includes a rather charming little brass kangaroo, made by a smith somewhere in India who had clearly only ever seen a photo of the beast. Mum's family had pretensions and, apart from Mum, rather despised 'Australiana' and placed a higher value on their imported Anglo culture - really only the furniture was passed down and that only because it was very very functional.
