Meet Nuschka Fawn

Keira Daisy Clémentine is delighted to announce the opening of her luxury atelier, Le Palais Clémentine. Inspired by a deep reverence for the woodland fawn, the inaugural collection expresses this romance through Nuschka—made to be an heirloom deer, lovingly hand-crafted on a hundred year old sewing machine to be a treasure for life.

Each Nuschka Deer is as unique as the person who loves her.

The Magic of Le Palais Clémentine

Wild blackberry thickets, prickly gorse, and arching hawthorn shiver in the secret woodland, and among them play deer and bears, minimalist or herringbone, the soft composition of beloved heirlooms.

Le Palais Clémentine, a dreamlike stroll between the elegant and the playful, breathes new life into time-honoured designs drawn directly from pedigree craft and customs.

A homage to heritage techniques, each forever friend is crafted on a sewing machine that has already lasted a hundred years now making heirlooms made to love forever.

Since its beginning with a single tartan deer crafted for the Clémentine family Christmas, Le Palais Clémentine has remained faithful to its artisanal, ethical, and poetic values.

An independent, female-founded atelier, Le Palais Clémentine is committed to the slow-crafted romance of the past. Every bespoke forever friend is meticulously hand-sewn in small batches on a hundred-year-old sewing machine.

Miss Keira Daisy Clémentine

From woodland to nursery, Keira Daisy Clémentine has allowed her imagination to soar, freehand, inspired by a world sweetbriar, and tangled hazel coppices, a place for crocks of dandelion honey, a place for woven willow baskets heaped with wild acorns, beautiful in its childhood tenderness.

Passionate about childhood literacy, Keira has an English degree, is a published poet, and has written a book to accompany her heirloom friends.

The Anti-Mass-Produced Heirloom

Mass-produced toys end up in landfills, but Nuschka Deer is a story crafted by hand to endure for generations.

I make forever friends built to survive a lifetime of love, sewing each piece individually on my hundred-year-old Singer machine. I qualified as an early childhood educator ten years ago, and learnt long ago that true imagination is never disposable.

Because every piece is meticulously handcrafted right here in Brisbane, quantities are strictly limited.
