Interesting Collectables of New Zealand
Souvenir China, Mineral Water Bottles & history, Antique Telephones.

Thanks for dropping by. Over a period of time I will be adding a lot of reference material in connection with my personal areas if interest - 

souvenir china, 
old and antique bottles  
antique telephones.

I am always looking to buy, swap, trade, exchange for my personal collection. 

If anybody has any information on a "Hot Springs Hotel, Te Aroha" soda syphon (whether clear or coloured) please let me know. Top dollars will be paid for this item. I am also interested in early labelled bottles, either to do with Te Aroha or Grey & Menzies.

From time to time I may even have some excess pieces for sale. Currently that is restricted to general NZ souvenir china. 

My personal interests are now all centred around my home town, Te Aroha, New Zealand. This tiny little town must have one of the greatest selections of souvenir china available. The soda springs of Te Aroha were the talk of New Zealand at one stage. It was here that Robert Robertson Menzies started his first business, joining forces with Samuel Hirst. If you have any Te Aroha memorabilia or Grey & Menzies bottles or paraphenalia available please let me know. 

Once you've had a look around why not visit:
