About Us

AUSTRALIAN DESIGNED GIFTS & HOMEWARES 

At Alperstein Designs, we create unique collections of lifestyle gifts and homewares in collaboration with Australian artists and art centres. Our in-house brand, along with these partnerships, offers beautifully crafted products that celebrate Australian art and design, perfect for homes and gifts—whether you're in Australia or abroad.

WHO WE ARE

Alperstein Designs is a family-owned business, founded in 1996, with a strong passion for celebrating Australian art. While we are not an Aboriginal-owned company, we proudly collaborate with both Aboriginal artists and a wide range of Australian artists to showcase their incredible work.

We supply high-end retailers, including galleries and museums, with premium lifestyle gifts and homewares. Over the past 15+ years, we’ve built long-standing relationships with many Aboriginal artists and art centres, working primarily with artists whose focus is on art-making and exhibitions, both locally and globally.

Our products are created in close consultation with the artists and art centres to complement their existing practices, ensuring that each piece reflects their artistic vision.

WHO WE COLLABORATE WITH


HOW IT WORKS

Royalties from these products benefit the artists.

Alperstein Designs collaborates with Aboriginal artists, art centres, and Australian creatives to reproduce artworks under license on a range of functional lifestyle products.

This collaboration allows us to bring art into your everyday life while supporting the artists. We pay ongoing royalties based on licensing agreements, which are renewed periodically with the artists and art centres. Artists retain copyright ownership of their artwork, and we always consult with them before going into production to ensure that the final products align with their artistic vision.

Each product comes packaged with information about the artist and the artwork, providing a deeper connection to the art you bring into your home.

ART GALLERY

Artworks showcased in the Art Gallery are original, authentic artworks.
These artworks are consigned for sale, direct from the Art Centre and come with certification from the Art centre so you can feel confident in the artwork providence and that you have ethically purchased an incredible artwork. Listed sale prices are set in consult with the Art Centre to ensure that sale prices are in line with primary art market prices.
