Ilaria Cornaggia Medici and Angiolo Logi first met in Florence in 1971. Ilaria was a student of architecture and Angiolo an architect and lecturer at the same university. In 1973 they married in London and later collaborated in Italy and Brazil designing, sculpting and silversmithing. Australia became their home in 1979. In the same year they established their design studio, Puzzle.

In their workshop and foundry, the Logis produce lost- wax castings. The results are characterised by the satisfying weight, smooth tactility and soft sensual curves of all the pieces they make. Inspired by the natural shapes and textures of the unique flora and fauna of Australia, the Logis produce only a limited number of their exclusive silverware, jewellery, flatware and objets d’art.

The Logi designs enjoy an unrivalled reputation for their originality and quality of craftsmanship. One of their Australia Puzzles has been presented to the Queen, a 60th birthday gift given by Bob Hawke from the people of Australia. More recently the Three Tenors received a Puzzle each and SOCOG presented a Puzzle to Athens to congratulate them on their successful Olympic bid. Other notable collectors include Michael Jackson and Stevie Wonder.

This is a 5000 year old rare and beautiful timber discovered in the Murray River, salvaged and recycled by a group of talented wood artists who now produce an exquisite range of bowls, boxes, jewellery and desk sets.

The collection is valued for the rare and intrinsic value of the natural material – over the thousands of years, the wood has become impregnated with chemicals from the ground water, producing the striking deep black colour.

The wood is composed of atoms that existed in the atmosphere and soils of the environment of 5000+ years ago. 18,000 years ago Australia was in the grip of a cold, dry period that devastated woodland vegetation. When the Ice Age ended about 10,000 years ago, trees returned to the rivers and mountain slopes, the Murray remained a course gravelly stream with colonies of giant redgums growing on the banks. As the channel changed the trees fell and were covered – they have been rediscovered. Each unique item carved of Australian Ancient Redgum comes with a Certificate of Authentication. This certificate is your assurance that the piece you have purchased is crafted from genuine Australian Ancient timber and is at its youngest at least 5,000 years old.

It is available in many patterns – in the Indigenous Series there is Brolga, Crocodile and Frog. In the traditional patterns there is Flowering Gum, Satin, Swirl, Waratah and Hand Raised.

Australia is surrounded by ocean and artists have struggled to capture the fluid movement of the ever changing water, sand and light patterns.

Don Sheil has succeeded with spectacular results represented in the Swirl pattern which has evolved to become an enduring favourite in the Don Sheil range.

Many of the designs have been inspired by nature’s textures and patterns, so, as in nature, no two pieces will be exactly alike, and variations characteristic of handcrafting may be apparent.

The Swirl pattern is acid etched and anodically finished. Collectors appreciate this, and although an item will be greatly admired, it is also designed to be used.

The Sheil range continues to maintain this tradition of excellence established over many years, creating versatile, enduring designs, perfect for today’s lifestyle.

Made from a unique alloy, each item has the enduring beauty of silver without the drawbacks. It will not tarnish or impart a metallic taste, nor will it be affected by salad dressing, mustard or wine. It may be put in the freezer or taken straight from the oven to the table.

Each piece in the Sheil Collection carries the Don Sheil trademark which is Don’s signature and hand engraved, which ensures its authenticity and originality. Mark Sheil is now the master craftsman, and is continuing the tradition of excellence, which distinguishes these pieces as collectors items.

The hor d’oeuvre plates designed by Mark Sheil cater for all situations related to Hors d’oeuvre requirements. The extra small and the small plate can be used as an individual serving at the table or to move around and the medium and large can be used for passing around. The two larger sizes hold a number of these tasty little nibbles and of course the same plates limit the amount offered – small is good.

This extra small hors d’oeuvre plate is sized at D240mm x H15mm x W180mm  weighing 200gm. Available in Crocodile. Flowering Gum, Hand Raised, Satin andWaratah.
