Merry's Jewels

Merry's Jewels Merry's Jewels Over many decades, I have been lucky to travel and visit antique and flea markets all over the world. I breed Border Collies.

My earliest memory of my passion for jewellery is of sitting with my Nana at her dressing table and being allowed to feel, touch, wear and enjoy her sparkly 1950s costume jewellery. Later my mother shared with me her collection of classic family antique jewellery from Victorian and Edwardian times, and a life-long hobby was firmly established! Now, in retirement, I am selling most of my collection

- to make some room, but also, of course, to allow me to keep hunting and collecting! I am lucky enough to live in beautiful Tasmania, in Hobart, which is situated on the Derwent River, and enjoy my Japanese inspired garden. Check out my items on -

David Roche did not acquire a lot of jewellery for his collection; however he was very interested in stick pins which were used traditionally to secure a gentleman’s tie.

Over the years he acquired many decorative examples illustrating dogs, horses, monkeys, cameos, flowers and much more. A particularly glamorous example in David’s collection is a stick pin from c.1900 with the Royal monogram of King Wilhelm II of Wurttemberg.

If judging a dog show, David was always very careful not to wear a dog stick pin in case anyone felt he was favouring a particular breed.
