About
Look for Dust & Rust in South Island for local business at 35 Fairfax Street, Murchison 7007. The address places it in a small town in the island's north-west, on the road between Nelson and the surrounding district. Murchison sits inland from the coast, so the shop draws travellers passing through rather than beachgoers.
Dust & Rust trades as an antiques business, dealing in second-hand and vintage goods. Its 4.5 out of 5 rating from 66 reviews points to a steady following among collectors and passers-through. Five photos accompany the listing, showing the stock and interior. Queenstown, Christchurch, Dunedin, Nelson, Blenheim, Wanaka, Te Anau and Kaikoura lie elsewhere on the island, and Nelson sits within the wider region.
First-time visitors should expect a browsable antique shop rather than a formal showroom, where stock turns over and browsing takes time.
Seasons on South Island run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, so a Murchison visit is easiest in the warmer months. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country. The Southern Alps run down the South Island, and the North Island has a volcanic plateau with hot springs and geysers. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
