DOOR022
This is an extraordinary and unique piece of Australiana, which we acquired 40 years ago and used in our shop, which we are now vacating. The oval stained glass depicts the pre-Federation unofficial Australian coat of arms. From the 1820’s this depicted 4 symbols of commerce, namely a golden fleece, a ship, an anchor and wheat. This was supported by a kangaroo and an emu, with Advance Australia as the motto. This was widely used across the eastern colonies of Australia. Examples of this coat of arms are very collectable. We are not aware any other set into a door. The door is constructed from North American red pine. The oval centrepiece is flanked by 4 pieces of mouth-blown French flame Bariole glass. There is unusual and attrctive triangular fielding on the outside , with an amber glass and brass centre door pull. We added the brass Art Nouveau finger plates, which matched our décor, but are from a later period. Size : 900mm wide x 2100mm high. Excellent condition. Price : $6500.00 in store. |
