Joshua Ebenston b. 1835

  • Artist ,
  • Maker (Furniture Designer / Cabinetmaker)
Joshua Ebenston was a skilled cabinet-maker in colonial Brisbane. However, because furniture from his workshop was unmarked we know of the quality of his work through two major pieces documented to 'Glengallan', Warwick in 1868. The Glengallan furniture work was carved by Mathew Fern.
