all our valued customers and newsletter subscribers. We
have now upgraded customer loyalty to customer royalty for the next
seven days. As one of our royal guests, if you make a purchase
before the end of October, you will be rewarded with a 16% discount.
This email is a simple
coupon giveaway rather than the regular Spring Downunder
newsletter. The coupon entitles you to
16% discount on any purchases
until the end of October - for the next 7 days.
This means that you now have one week to help eliminate any
pre-Christmas shopping stress by purchasing some of your Christmas

To take advantage of this offer, simply redeem this coupon by
following the instructions below.

What's new?
Names such as Gloria Petyarre, Mitjili Naparrula and the late Margaret
Turner Petyarre are celebrated in the art world. Brief biographies of
the artists and related slideshows are available in our gallery.
Beyond Sacred is now available
online in our collector art gallery. It is an outstandingly important
book about the modern Aboriginal art movement.
Authoritative, definitive, representative and inspiring …. are all words
that spring to mind regarding this one-of-a-kind, visual feast of a
book. It focuses on the Aboriginal art collection of Colin and Elizabeth
Laverty. This highly representative and comprehensive collection has
been referred to as ‘the most important private collection of Indigenous
art in the country’ (Nicolas Rothwell, North Australia correspondent for
The Australian Newspaper).
To accompany our books, we now offer some very attractive boomerang,
Sydney Opera House, kangaroo and koala
24K gold-plated stainless steel bookmarks
[
US$ display ]. They're worth checking
out as ideal filler-type gifts or sweet little thankyou gifts given as a
token of appreciation.
The most popular large
ornamental piece we have
for the kitchen or dining area is the 33cm-long
coolamon
[
shop in US$
]. This is a
very attractive Aboriginal digging / carrying bowl featuring
contemporary Aboriginal art. It is ideal as a fruit bowl and will
be returning to our shelves next week, along with the brightly
hand-painted wooden spoons with a hole in the handle for
wall hanging . These
are both in the
Tableware Timber Art
[
shop in American $ ] product category.
At the moment the only one available in the waterproof bag series of " Aussie
Tote Bag with Artistic Print of Australian City
Skylines" is Brisbane [
shop in US$ ]. It is
designed in Australia as part of the forthcoming series of iconic mementos
of Aussie cities by the Australian artist, Janet Vandenberg. The Sydney
skyline bag design is currently in the process of being prototyped. Its
market release is worth keeping an eye out for.
What else is there to keep an eye out for? Let's see.
Mobile phone charms of kangaroos, koalas and the Aussie map,
Kombi Koala Boogies,
small Aboriginal bowls (small coolamon),
new Aussie stickers,
thong keychains and
