From her small studio in the Dandenong Ranges, MELINDA WALLIS strives for beauty in the form and surface. Simple designs can prove challenging, however this keeps her engaged as she continues to search for that one perfect piece... that enigma. She uses textured clays, often blending two or three together. The wheel gives Melinda the individual parts, and her hands assemble the finished product. The process is by far the main event for Melinda, the work is a bonus.

RINA BERNABEI has been working in industrial design for the past 30 years. She has brought her love of earthy, clean aesthetics to clay. Her work encapsulates her years of practice as a product designer as well as the relationships between handmade craft practices and digital technologies and manufacture. In 2018 Rina completed a traditional throwing course in Kyoto with a master ceramicist and in 2020 was asked to set up the 3D digital ceramic studio at Kyushu University in Fukuoka. Working within the Architecture and Design Faculty she ran workshops with students and with local craftsmen and ceramic studios.

Introducing 'pépite edits' - bespoke collections of contemporary objects, designed by pépite, artist-made and exclusively available at pépite.
For our very first collection, we collaborated with Melbourne-based artist Lucile Sciallano (of Alterfact and La Petite Fabrique de Brunswick) - together we brought to life an ode to the perfect ‘cone’. A simple form, yet so elegant and striking when all the angles and proportions are just right.
This first series focuses on the same form in three different sizes and two different finishes - ’Textured White’ and ‘Vanilla Bean’. Each vessel features its very own variations in form, glaze and texture with no two pieces ever the same. These vessels look beautiful displayed on their own but are also functional as they are watertight and food safe so they can become part of your home’s rituals.

ALTERFACT is an experimental design studio created by Lucile Sciallano and Ben Landau in 2014. Since graduating from Design Academy Eindhoven in 2013, Lucile and Ben have worked in tandem on various projects in different mediums. Their collaboration has culminated in the creation of Alterfact Studio, a platform through which to conduct critical research with materials and data translated through the manufacture of ‘stuff’.
Alterfact’s practice is currently focused on the use of 3D printing in clay as a small batch manufacturing process. They push the boundaries of this traditionally plastic-based medium, and play with its connotations of utilitarianism and gimmickry, as it moves into a feasible reality.

KIRA EDWARDS is a contemporary jeweller, utilising traditional techniques to make organic sculptural pieces. Her work is an ode to the making process, embracing the imperfections and beauty that arise along the way. Exploring texture, sculpture and mixed metals, her work aims to capture a natural ease.
Wearability is at the heart of her work. With conscious consumerism in mind, her work is made to be worn often and travel through life with the wearer, with the hope the pieces will be passed down generations.
Kira’s practice focuses on sustainability, using recycled materials where possible and making small quantities. Her work is made with love and consideration from her home studio in Naarm / Melbourne alongside her tiny bossy dog Pepper.
