WELCOME TO ECLECTOPIA ONLINE!
FROM ARTISAN HANDS TO YOURS...
Handmade has its own DNA, just like you and me!
The point of difference in selecting a carefully considered present for someone or for yourself comes down to investing in a gift made with integrity over some mass produced item which expresses little thought or sentiment, often ending up in landfill...
We passionately source and curate an eclectic range of gifts because we believe in the Gift of Giving, and retail therapy as a joyous experience!
"I do get excited when I come across a maker's work which sparks an emotive connection! I am then, strongly compelled to support and share their creativity at Eclectopia" Chrissie O'Neill

ALSTONEFIELD FARM: ALPACA & PEOPLE WORKING IN HARMONY
Eclectopia is proud to support locally produced hand crafted accessories within the beautiful central tablelands.
Alstonefield Farm is a family business passionate about creating hand loomed and handmade luxe accessories.
The gift box consists of hand knitted mittens and pom pom beanie: such a luxe winter fashion accessory indeed!
Alstonefield Farms' craft, is produced on the loom or made by hand. Made with the finest alpaca wool with many hours of dedication and love poured into each item.
I appreciated learning it takes almost one scane of alpaca wool, to make the pom pom!
