Hi All
Happy Monday...I think I have a little Monday -itis! Just a bit slow today. But the sun is shining in Melbourne and it is truly the most glorious day - gotta love that!
I have found a Hidden Treasure...ALAFIA GALLERY in Ormond Road, ELWOOD. Alafia - which means: A blessing of peace, in the Yoruba language of West Africa. Was opened by the lovely and very interesting Lorna Mauritzen, 14 years ago. Lorna travels all over the world buying from the most Exotic places. It's fascinating hearing about all the countries she has been to eg. Turkey, Morocco, Burma, Mexico, Spain, Israel,Thailand, Philippines, all over Africa, India and so many more...these are the ones I can remember.
The jewellery is gorgeous. I love it, so many yummy things. The best thing about Alafia is you can buy something gorgeous for $20 right through to $2000 (for beautiful furniture) If you need a gift, you will find something here. The are 3 beautiful rooms - one upstairs. Lorna loves to host launches and special evenings - so be sure to pop your email on the mailing list so you know whats happening.
OH and best, to top it all off they Gift Wrap with the most gorgeous wrapping papers and pouches etc... Too GOOD! Lorna and her staff are lovely. If you need any further info pop in or call on (03) 9531 7144.
Or email Lorna at alafia@bigpond.com
See you soon....

Interior Designers beware - I am giving away your secret. If you are on the look out for beautiful Furniture - Alafia has a beautiful range from of one off pieces. This cupboard above is just magnificent. I guess you don't stay in business for 14 years and have a loyal following, if you don't have a great eye and keep up with the latest looks. She has people come to her from all over Victoria - very impressive.
