BiLLY's Botanica

At BiLLY, we can't get enough of old botanical books. 

Antique or vintage, it doesn't really matter.

The essential element of a superbly beautiful botanica are the colour plates.

Our design inspiration comes from delicately crafted illustrations of 
Bush Blossom, Flannel flowers, Bottle Brush and Grevillea.

Edgar Dell was a Western Australian painter best known for his 

watercolours of Australian wildflowers.  

During the 1930's and 40's his illustrations 

featured once a week in a colour supplement to The Western Mail.

Edgar Dell lived to the ripe old age of 106.  

Perhaps it was because he loved what he did and 

painted what he loved.

His illustrations continue to inspire BiLLY.

Come and visit BiLLY at the next Fair Day in Bowral.
