Modern folk. Lightly made.
From ancient script to modern folklore — stories told not in words but in pattern, in the objects we make and the hands they pass through.
Material Folklore marks 20 years of Lightly. The Folklore rug is woven from the stories between humans and culture — folk motifs reinterpreted in New Zealand wool, hand-tufted in limited editions.

Celebrating 20 years of Lightly — over ten days, three new bodies of work in wool, resin, and steel invited us to consider how objects accumulate meaning — how form, over time, becomes symbol.
For those who visited, thank you. It was a pleasure to share the work in person. For those who couldn't make it, the collection will be available online very soon.

Form Follows Colour — We began with resin in 2005. Twenty years on, we return to the material that moves like no other — and this time, colour leads the way.
New Collection — Origin is here. A year in the making, cast by hand in strictly limited editions of 40–50 pieces, zero waste and fair trade made. Platters, bowls, cake stands, vessels, soap dishes and our beloved servers — each one uniquely marbled, no two ever alike.
Deep red-earth Ochre. Meadow-fresh Moss. Warm Latte. Rich Umber. Grounded Earth. Soft Sage.
Resin is fluid, luminous and alive. It captures colour in a way no other material can. Every piece is its own.
Form follows colour. Always.
