The Maker

Amid the lively precinct of Hobart's midtown, visitors to 'the maker' encounter intuitive design, and extraordinary fabrics. Our carefully curated collections celebrate the beauty of Japanese aesthetics, from wabi-sabi ceramics, textiles, and intriguing vintage art and folk crafts, as well as contemporary jewellery and accessories from around the world. 'the maker' is the exclusive showcase for ambitious clothing line 'LJ struthers', the Tasmanian label imagined, cut and produced here on the island. Worn and collected internationally, 'LJ struthers' clothing calls to independently minded humans looking for creative joy and self-expression through dress, with dramatic silhouettes and clever detailing. Seasonal shades, limited edition cuts and unparalleled fabrics mean you’ll never view the same collection twice. We’re in our element telling the stories of generations of skilled makers; of practised hands shaping traditional materials and adapting new technologies. We delight in the details of construction, the tales of origin and in beauty for its own sake, welcoming every visitor to share in our enjoyment.
