handmade australian tableware is durable functional and beautiful. we have shown work from australian makers since our showroom first launched in 1998 and have an extensive range from makers from all over the country in both potts point and surry hills. in the season of overindulgence we thought that you might like to see work from some of our amazing craftspeople.

andrei davidoff creates this range in single fired handthrown porcelain. the slip brushwork brings an energy and life to clean classic forms. because the porcelain is high temperature fired and vitrified, nothing will penetrate the surface of the vessels

ode are spectacularly good at creating pleasing original forms that are also functional. these pieces below are from a sydney couple and are made in cast porcelain with body stain in the clay for colour, with clear glaze on interior surfaces.

sharon alpren handthrows textured earthy raw claybodies and features unique glaze effects to delight users of her work with subtle variations in surface. the work below is beautiful for everyday use or a feature object in your home

vanessa lucas creates pieces that are utterly contemporary with timeless almost nostalgic references. she was trained in ceramics and then had a career in fashion and claims that after a visit to our sydney showroom a few years ago, she was inspired to get messy with clay again. she casts in porcelain with lovely soft mat glazes in subtle colours

david collins has had a lifelong career teaching ceramics. recently he has created this beautiful textural tableware collection. we think that it would add warmth and style to any meal

but perhaps going somewhere this summer? we have a great range of bags to suit men and women. including this range in black canvas with leather detailing from qwestion in switzerland. an exclusive one only set ( of 9 only worldwide) is at our surry hills store.

indigo blues seem to be having their moment in interiors and fashion. we have this amazing collection of vintage japanese pots in surry hills and many come with their original timber signed boxes

indigo bedlinen, indonesian ikat throw with laos indigo cushions and vintage persian carpet... and we even have some stock furniture for pre christmas delivery including beds

and also we have a beautiful collection from an australian leathergoods company... perfect day bags for travel or just getting through your day

handtowels perfect for guests and turkish towels for the beach or by the pool. many of these pieces are hand spun and hand woven from india.

andrew burns has created these sweet small vases. taking his inspiration from polystyrene, he has used this material to cast from for a delicate surface texture

you didn't realise that you might need a glass cloud  in your life... cast in four sizes as a sculptural object or perhaps a paperweight?

we have a huge range of small items for the season of gifts... pure natural and useful....how about a christmas decoration made from a banksia seed pod?

a votive turned from a banksia seed pod, pure beeswax candles that purify the air in a room, salus soaps and personal products made in australia from botanicals, organic cotton and organic indian hand spun and hand woven towels.

a christmas wreath made from dried seedpods can double as a table centrepiece. soaps, natural moth protection, heat packs for sore muscles and drawer liners all wrapped in block printed indigo fabric

blokes can be tricky to find a gift for and we have loads of great suggestions. beeswax candles are slow burning and actually purify the air in a room and have a subtle sweet scent

the salus range of bathroom products are pure and fresh botanicals made in australia.... soaps, hand-creams, bath sals and body lotions. we also have affordable japanese porcelain tableware and a great selection of teatowels in pure european linen
