Introducing Mystique by Estelle Michaelides

A new artist collaboration that blooms with elegance.

We’re thrilled to unveil Mystique, our newest artistic collaboration with Melbourne-based fashion designer and artist Estelle Michaelides. Known for her emotive, dreamlike visual language, Estelle brings her signature touch to this enchanting teaware collection.

Mystique captures the beauty of florals in a pastel-infused palette, with intricate blooms and painterly textures adorning footed mugs, teapots, delicate cups and saucers, and an exquisite two-tiered cake stand.

It’s art for your table, ideal for high tea, meaningful moments, or a thoughtful gift. It’s available in beautifully gift-boxed sets, Mystique is more than a collection, it’s an experience.

Eloise Short Lyric collection

Sip slowly, connect deeply.

With the Eloise Short Lyric collection, we continue our collaboration with Sydney based artist Eloise Short, a celebration of Australia’s native flora reimagined in a palette of soft greys, rich indigos, and gentle greens. Hand-drawn botanicals float across a range of porcelain teaware, inviting you to pause, reflect, and savour. Each piece, from the oversized mugs to the beautifully boxed tea sets, is a nod to nature’s quiet magic.

Whether you’re gifting a tea lover or refreshing your own collection, this teaware turns every tea break into a moment of calm, colour, and connection.
