Plonk
Tessa is fascinated by the environment that surrounds her and her family history. Past collections have been inspired ny her mothers antique collections and from these interests she has developed a unique and somewhat whimsical personal narrative that weaves its way through Plonk.
She personally makes each piece using humble hand-printed and nostalgic fabrics, appropriate materials indeed to create the world of Plonk.
