Monday evening shop post - Pomme

Earlier this year my bookclub group had their regular get together out of town at Mornington (about an hours drive out of Melbourne) and after an enjoyable, leisurely lunch I found time to have a stroll around some of the shops and I popped in to one of my favourites, Pomme. This sweet tiny little shop is hidden away at the rear of the main street - it faces a car park no less! But don't let this put you off, it has the most wonderful one-off pieces that are both inspirational and gorgeous. It's more like a gallery and supports both local and international artists and master crafts persons.

Each time I find myself on the Mornington Peninsula I cannot resist dropping by Pomme to see what they have in store. Here are just a few of the artists/craftspersons that they stock that I particularly like.

Ceramics by Sophie Milne...



Ceramics by Stockholm based Karin Eriksson...


Polypropylene sculptural vessels by Emma Davies...


Glass vessels/forms by Leisa Wharington...

Paintings by Bronwyn Bain...


Jewellery by Katheryn Leopoldseder...


Jewellery using recycle materials (Tupperware containers would you believe!) by Liana Kabel...
