Australiana jewellery

Australia Day is celebrated on 26th January. The date marks the anniversary of the 1788 arrival of the First Fleet of British Ships at Port Jackson, New South Wales, and the raising of the Flag of Great Britain at that site by Governor Arthur Phillip.

Australiana jewellery was popular at the turn of the last century. Kellies has a delightful collection for you to choose from.
