Description
This Kangaroo Gift Mug is part of the Barney Gumnut & Friends Collection by Ashdene, illustrated by Tamsin Ainslie.
Aw. So adorable!
The full set of products includes koala & kangaroo mugs, as well as coffee trays, egg holders and kid’s dining sets.
Due to Australia’s loss of commercial porcelain manufacturing, this product was made overseas on behalf of an Australian owned company.
About Illustrator Tamsin Ainslie
Tamsin Ainslie is a popular internationally known illustrator of more than 45 children’s books; as well as book covers, stationery, greeting cards, children’s games, toys & more. She is based in Murwillumbah, Northern NSW and outside her beautiful illustrating work, she loves spending time with her family, surfing, cooking, and playing.
She notes
“…the little most important moments in life add to my work. A word, a colour, a toy, a moment. This is what my illustration is, always a work in progress, always evolving and telling a story.”
She has created this beautiful Barney Gumnut and Friends collection for Ashdene.
About Ashdene
Ashdene are the producers of this beautiful koala gift mug. They’re an Australian owned company that has been designing high quality Tableware, Giftware and Accessories for over 25 years.
Due to the closure of Australia’s bone china manufacturing plants and declining manufacturing industry, this product has been made overseas.
We love Ashdene because although they have needed to move the manufacture of their goods overseas; they are very passionate about supporting local Australian designers and illustrators.
A cause we can really get behind here at I Still Call Australia Home!
