I love the relaxed provincial feel of it. It’s unpretentious yet...…READ MORE

After a bit of a break I’ve finally found some time between private client requests (and real work) to be able to offer some new pieces through eBay.

We had an AMAZING time. We spent our first week on the main island, Viti Levu, down on the Coral Coast. Snorkelling, scuba diving, foraging for hermit crabs, drinking cocktails, cheering on cane toad races….you know, all the stereotypical islandy stuff! We travelled up one of the inland rivers on a long boat to visit a traditional village and primary school where we took part...…READ MORE

I passed by the then vacant block of land almost everyday, never really taking too much notice. I absently recall a FOR SALE sign going up, a SOLD sticker being slapped on it, the slab being poured and bricks being layed. I remember a young couple moving in.
