Now & Then: Catanach s Jewellers - Jeweller Magazine: Jewellery News and Trends

Now & Then: Catanach’s Jewellers Posted April 15, 2021 Jeweller takes a closer look at the history of Catanach’s Jewellers with Amanda Catanach, managing director, as it turns 147 this year. FOUNDED BY George William Catanach ESTABLISHED 1874 George William Catanach migrated from London, UK to Australia in 1870 aboard the ship Swiftsure, aged 24. A trained diamond setter, he filled a need for skilled workers to manufacture the many items of jewellery starting to be produced in Melbourne due to the Gold Rush. As the only diamond setter in the colony, his skills were in demand and he worked for several Melbourne jewellers until 1874, when he opened GW Catanach Manufacturing Jeweller on Elizabeth Street in the CBD.

Timaru artist Anita Rogers exhibits Recent Works

Rogers said it is hard to say which genre she favours and her exhibition includes an impressionist landscape of a scene that only exists in her imagination, the skyline of a Mediterranean-like town and an upside down pattern of balance and colour piece. “My work changes every year.” Another art piece, Letters, started with a white canvas then plain lines on wet paint, she said. Almost all her paintings have a moon in them as Rogers feels a connection to the feminine aspect of the planet. “My art, just happens.” JOHN BISSET/Stuff Artist Anita Rogers is exhibiting at the York Street Gallery of Fine Art until May 14.

Timaru artist s exhibition raising money for supplies for his students

“I just leave myself enough for bread and water, and a bit of cheese. “I m not worried about the money, it’s the outcome. It s just bloody good to be a part of it. “It’s good to give, and you get it back.” Charity came from the outside too, with Patrick sometimes finding canvases or paint at his doorstep. “I work with kids of all ages and they keep coming back, even if it’s just for a cup of tea. “I like to think I’m giving them the tools for later life. It s a gallery with a difference.”
