Description:THEODORE BRUCE AUCTIONS' INTRODUCTION:
The Kirks have always been Collectors with an eclectic range of interest from Roman Antiquities, Early Australian Jewellery and Tasmanian Convict Pieces (not to mention V2 and Saturn V rocket items!) which now form part of the Auctions proudly presented by Theodore Bruce.
While living in Nubeena, near Port Arthur the Kirks were involved in the local History Association and partook in archaeological digs. This led to a fascination in Tasmania's history. All items have been purchased from Antique Dealers in Oatlands, Campbelltown, Hobart, New Norfolk and Launceston. The collection of Australian jewellery with a Tasmanian theme came about while living in Perth and dreaming of a sea change to a cooler climate. Pieces were bought from Antique shops throughout Australia and as far afield as America where the Gemstone Southern Cross Wishbone Brooch was bought.
The Roman collection which is vast and diverse was acquired, while living in London, from mainly English dealers (London, Cambridge, Oxford, York and Bath) and with an interest in Military fastenings and religion-ritual. A variety of Figures, Household items and Glass form an expansive collection that is sure to delight Collectors of history.
