Leather accessories, jewellery and home wares, designed/ made in Tasmania. Whimsical beauty for every day.
Now in our fifth year of operation, Pili Pala Pieces brings you a collection of unique and whimsical pieces that are designed/hand made in Hobart. With an underlying vintage theme, our jewellery and home ware products feature illustrations and patterns from the 1800’s and early 1900’s. Our leather range feature Helen’s very own illustrations based around a playful and quirky take on nursery rhymes.
“What started as a hobby, quickly snowballed. With the overwhelming response to my pieces and the demand to expand and introduce more unique products, the brand has gone from strength to strength.” “I love taking an illustration or print that is 100 years old and giving it a new life in a contemporary and on-trend product. It’s the ultimate up cycle”
Helen Mansbridge
(Founder, Designer and Maker)
“This year, for the first time, we introduce a pop of bright patterns to our jewellery and home wares range. Like our other designs, the patterns are vintage sourced.”
After introducing the smartphone wallets last year, it was clear that there was a niche in the leather market that was waiting to be filled. Our wallets were designed for mobiles that were similar to the dimensions of an iphone (which dominated the market). As 2013 rolled on though, it became apparent that mobiles of different dimensions were becoming popular and so the need to re-design was a necessity. Hence, I have re-vamped our smartphone wallets so they are compatible with all sorts of different mobiles and they now have more card and note slots as well.
“The response and feedback on the smartphone wallets that I designed and launched last year has been overwhelming. Only in my wildest dreams did I think that they would be received so positively. I regularly hear from happy customers who describe the wallets as ‘unique’, ‘whimsical’, and ‘clever’.”
