Hi, I'm Kathy — and I make things that people keep.

It started with moon jars — a traditional Korean ceramic form. I fell in love with the shape: round, imperfect, quietly beautiful. I started making my own in Brisbane, painting each one by hand with botanical motifs and moon phases. They became diffusers — functional objects that live on bedside tables and windowsills, slowly releasing fragrance while holding a certain kind of stillness.

Every piece is made in my small Brisbane studio. I mix my own colours, I fire each jar myself, and I paint every single one by hand. No two are the same. That's not a selling point — it's just the nature of making things by hand.

Find me at the markets

I do markets because I love meeting the people who end up with my work. If you're in Brisbane, come find me at BrisStyle on May 2 — I'll be at Whale Mall.

Online orders ship Australia-wide, usually within 3–5 business days. I'm a one-woman studio, so if you have questions, you'll hear back from me directly.

— Kathy
