Our Story

(A husband and wife duo), Colm and Erin make up the entire team at Ripple Craft HQ, based in Shepparton in North central Victoria.
Erin’s background and strengths predominantly lie in the fields of management and keeping Colm on his toes at all times. Colm is a trade qualified Fitter Machinist with 21 years of machine shop experience. Colm considers himself to be the lucky one, he gets to spend almost all of his days getting stuck into what he loves best, making beautiful, functional and trendy handcrafted items of furniture for the home, office or café scene. He’s happiest so long as he is working with his hands to create something unique or bespoke which hopefully the eventual buyer will get to cherish and keep for many years to come.
At Ripple Craft we have started off by showcasing some of our artisan steel and wood stools which are really popular at the moment, but we can listen to any thoughts you may have with regards to designs and ideas for almost anything you have in mind. It doesn’t have to be just stools, tables and chairs. If you have an idea for some garden sculpture or wall art you’ve seen somewhere online or can’t seem to find anywhere else? Or simply a gift idea for that someone special? We can commission something personalised and unique for you. Don’t be afraid to tell us about it in an email or just phone.
Everything is made to order and handcrafted by Colm in his workshop using only, or as much as is physically possible Australian sourced and manufactured products including Australian steel, local reclaimed wood and new wood plus local small suppliers for all the little bits and bobs that go into each project.
