Alperstein Designs Tina Martin Umbrella

Alperstein Designs Tina Martin Umbrella

Inside your umbrella features artwork by Tina Martin from Warlukurlangu Artists so you can enjoy some beautiful artwork even on the rainiest days!

This is no ordinary Umbrella. These are not only pretty but also:

• very sturdy
• easy to get out of car or other tiny spaces while opening
• rest without an umbrella rest
• easy to open with a fine switch than the usual cheap umbrellas
• hold the water in without wetting the places, if you have to switch between indoors and outdoors :)

When you arrive to where you need to be, the umbrellas fold in reverse so you can continue enjoying the beautiful print as well as keeping dry!

Established in 1985 Warlukurlangu Artists Aboriginal Corporation is a not-for-profit organisation that is 100% Aboriginal-owned by its artists from the remote desert communities of Yuendumu and Nyirripi in Central Australia.

Alperstein Designs is a family-owned Australian business creating beautiful lifestyle gifts and homewares in collaboration with Australian artists and art centres. Founded in 1996, the brand celebrates Australian art and design through thoughtfully made products that bring artwork into everyday life. Alperstein Designs works closely with Aboriginal artists, art centres and other Australian creatives, with ongoing royalties from licensed products benefiting the artists. The company is also a member of the Indigenous Art Code and the Aboriginal Art Association of Australia, supporting ethical practices within the Australian art sector and they try and make their products as much as possible in Australia.

At Pookipoiga, we are grateful to support brands like Alperstein Designs for its thoughtful approach to Australian art, meaningful collaborations and beautiful functional gifts that help share artists' work with a wider audience, especially our Indigenous artisans, and add to the impact with our additional sustainability and giving back  :)
