Australiana homewares: bushfires renew love of nature

While the utter devastation of our exquisite Aussie native flora and fauna sadly continues, we’re continuing to celebrate all things Australian for the home. From textiles to wallpaper featuring native banksia, wattle, koalas and kangaroos, here’s our pick of the most stylish Aussie-themed interior finds.

Trudy Rice ‘King Fisher’ table runner: Designed by Australian artist Trudy Rice, using original artwork and a unique printmaking method called ‘solar plate etching,’ this Kingfisher emblazoned linen table runner is rather gorgeous. The design is available as a place mat and cushion too. $150 (large).
