For over 40 years, the Rudolf Steiner Book Centre has been active not just as a book shop, but as a centre of information about Anthroposophy and related movements in Sydney, Australia and the worldwide community.

The “Rudolf Steiner Bookshop” was opened at Rozelle on 3 February 1975 as part of St John Group activities. The St John Group is the Sydney Branch of the Anthroposophical Society in Australia. The Bookshop later merged with the “Anthroposophical Book Centre” under the name of “Rudolf Steiner Book Centre” at Rudolf Steiner House, 307 Sussex Street, Sydney. It remains a not‐for‐profit organisation. To visit the website, click here

Mercurius Australia are committed to consciously work in our part of the world, providing products that support the holistic development of the child, through education, art and play, both within our schools and within our homes. If you would like to know more about any of our products, or have any questions relating to supporting the developing senses through art and education, please be in touch.

Waldorf and Steiner schools around the world recognise the importance of the developing senses, with a curriculum centred around pedagogical development. Stockmar, Mercurius International and Mercurius Australia are companies that were born out of a vision to create, supply and provide access to products that support the work of a pedagogical centred education, and hence the healthy development of the senses.

LilyRose Artisan Fibres
"My name is Rosie and I’m a dyer of natural fibres. I dye 100% pure wool felt, wool yarn of every ply, pure silk play scarves for imaginative play, and much more. I also sew and embroider and love to make small dolls for children’s play, particularly finger puppet peg dolls. My specialty is working with clear rainbow colours, in both pastel and bright tones. I also like to work with the colours of the Australian bush, and secondary and multi tonal dyeing. I can dye to order as well. I use professional dyes to ensure there is no colour run or fading.
I have been a dyer for over 30 years and absolutely love it still!”

Elisabeth's Dolls made in France

"My name is Elisabeth Cusenier, now retired from my work as a very happy Kindergarten teacher in France for 25 years. I have been inspired by the teachings of Rudolf Steiner and I have always believed in the importance of dolls in a child’s life. The doll is a real treasure and it opens the child to a world of love.  Each doll is made by hand with love, and with quality materials that I order from Germany. Selected cotton is used for the body of the dolls and the clothes; wool is used in filling the dolls, for the hair and for some of the clothes as well. It is wonderful to be able to create these dolls, and I am delighted to know that my dolls will be residing in Australia!"

Francoise Sauvere is a good friend of Elisabeth and of SECA. She is the contact person in Australia for ordering a doll from Elisabeth. Francoise has 18 dolls for sale at the moment (7 pictured).
