A premium boutique ceramics and homewares store featuring locally handmade ceramics and works by local Newcastle artists. Founded in 2021 by Tamara Bajic - all pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe.
Palinopsia Ceramics opened in June 2021 and has quickly established itself as one of the more distinctive retail offerings on Darby Street. Founder Tamara Bajic creates beautifully designed stoneware alongside showcasing other local Newcastle artists and makers.
The shop takes a practical approach to artisan ceramics - all pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe, making them genuinely usable in everyday life rather than decorative only. This combination of aesthetic quality and function is a core part of the Palinopsia identity.
Home linens and works by other local artists round out the collection, making it a destination for considered homeware gifts.
