pépite's story

 
a curated collection of contemporary design objects

pépite is an informal gallery showcasing a curated collection of contemporary design objects by emerging artists. Our collection is available to view and purchase online or within the intimate environment of our Collingwood showroom.

Exhibiting more than 60 artists, pépite presents one-of-a kind and limited edition works, most of which aren’t available anywhere else. Our collection features predominantly ceramic sculptures, alongside glass, timber and metal objects and artworks.

pépite’s vision goes beyond sourcing and selling handmade pieces - underpinning what we do is a desire to uncover new talent, support emerging artists in developing their practice and present a considered and fresh selection of inspiring
pieces for everyone to enjoy.

Every object and happening at pépite has been curated by founder Irina Rybakov. Irina is committed to supporting emerging talent and has been involved in Melbourne’s creative scene since she moved to Melbourne 14 years ago (from Lyon, France).

And for those wondering, pépite means ‘a good find’ in French.
