Company Information

Newport Garden Seashells is owned and operated by Kim Back.

Kim was born and bred into seashells by his parents Walter and Fay Back whose collection was extensively used for the plates of Dr Barry Wilson's book, Australian shells published in 1971.

Kim joined the Fisheries Research Department in 1974 as a Biologist due to his love for the ocean, diving and seashells. Leaving the Department in 1990, Kim pursued his passion for seashells trading and selling specimen shells.

This background in the biology of marine animals and Fisheries management has given Kim a great understanding of the diverse world of Western Australian Seashells and beyond.
