Introducing Lem Lem


We're very excited to welcome our newest addition to Mr & Mrs Smith Lem Lem, which means flourish or bloom in Amharic.

Supermodel and actress Liya Kebede discovered that traditional weavers in her native country of Ethiopia  
were losing their jobs due to a decline in local demand for their goods and wanted to do 
something about it. 

Recognizing the beauty, quality and historic significance of their work,
 Liya started Lemlem in 2007 as a way to inspire 
economic independence in her native country and to preserve the art of weaving

Lem Lem focuses on relaxed luxury and maintains modern sensibility , creating the perfect 
capsule wardrobe for any contemporary traveler.

INTRODUCING SAMANTHA ROBINSON TO MR & MRS SMITH


After completing a Bachelor of Fine Arts at the National Art School in Sydney Australia and following on with a Bachelor of Visual Arts (Honors) at Sydney College of the Arts, Samantha established her Sydney based ceramic design studio in 2000.
Today, her heart and environmental influences are reflected in many facets of her work. Her exclusively unique handmade pieces use only the finest of porcelains and display unique characteristics that are evident in her use of form, colour and exquisite finishes.
Samantha's designs have been chosen by many Australian master chefs and culinary providers to showcase their own unique creations. Some of which are Longrain, Pheasant, Miss G , Kylie Kwong, Jamie Oliver and many more .
Samantha's pieces are exhibited in many high end galleries and she also sells her work throughout the world through many hand picked boutique retailers . The US, Singapore , Japan and Hong Kong are the most prominent thus far.  Her designs have featured in numerous prominent magazines, including Vogue, Vogue Entertaining, Belle, Inside Out, Home Beautiful, Delicious, Donna Hay and Marie Claire, Harpers Bazaar, In Style , Shop till you drop and Notebook.
With a prolific taste for life and her obsession with colour and mused with the functionality and her fearless experimentation through design, Samantha’s Handmade pieces connect to such a broad spectrum of people from all walks of life. With her domestic range including everything from lights to teacups, watermelon bowls, and a stunning range of porcelain furniture, it is very hard to limit her work to just one room within your home. Samantha’s creations are meant to be enjoyed and used everyday.
