I have one of these, maybe a common name, but I've never heard of it.
It's a fairly standard single speed coaster ladies bike. It's got German running gear (a bit unusual in Australia), the rear fork is bolted on not brazed, its got a huge camber angle on the front wheel, and it's amazing tinny construction - very thin tubes of slightly bigger than normal width which have been pressed to increase strength (?).\
Colour is metallic blue with white mudguards - probably 60's built (otherwise it would have BSA parts anyway, virtually all bikes in Australia did before BSA stopped making bike parts).
Barjon is a French surname though, so a bit unlikely to be made in Australia.
