Our Ponsonby store is a physical extension of handcrafted modern—bringing together objects shaped by hand, material knowledge, and time.

Designed as both a retail space and a place of discovery, it offers a slower experience of the collection. Textiles, ceramics, and objects can be encountered physically—held, considered, and understood through their materiality and making.

The space reflects an ongoing dialogue between makers, materials, and the home, with a focus on pieces that carry a sense of origin, utility, and quiet permanence.

We encourage a slower approach to browsing. Our team is available to share insights into the makers and materials behind each piece, while allowing space to explore the collection at your own pace. Many works are produced in small batches or as one-off pieces.
