Matthew Fern b. 1831

  • Artist (Carver)

It is difficult to extract information of Australia's colonial cabinet-makers without trying to document individual workers. However, the individual style of journeyman wood-carvers makes it possible to trace their work through individual cabinet-making workshops.
