Winter gardens may be quieter, but that doesn't mean life has to be colourless.

Colour has a wonderful way of lifting a room, brightening a day and bringing warmth to the winter months. Whether it's a favourite piece of glass, a handcrafted ceramic mug or a vibrant artwork, small touches of colour can make a surprising difference.

At Little Black Gallery we're always drawn to the artists and makers who bring beauty, creativity and colour into everyday life.

Are you drawn to bold colours or softer, more natural tones?

There are some days when the best plan is no plan at all.

A comfortable chair, a hot coffee and a good book can be all that's needed for a perfect winter afternoon.

At Little Black Gallery you'll find a carefully selected collection of books covering art, gardens, New Zealand, design, creativity and more โ€” ideal for gifting or keeping for yourself.

One of the comments we hear most often from visitors is:

"I didn't realise there was so much here - lovely."

Part of the pleasure of visiting Little Black Gallery is discovering something unexpected.

A painting that catches your eye.

A piece of jewellery you haven't seen before.

A beautiful ceramic vessel.

A favourite book.

Or perhaps the perfect gift for someone special.

No two visits are quite the same. New work arrives regularly and there is always something different to discover around the next corner.

Sometimes the piece you weren't looking for becomes the one you take home.

Is there anything more satisfying than finding that one piece you've been searching for?

Winter is the perfect time to slow down, put the kettle on and spend a few hours with a good jigsaw puzzle.

At Little Black Gallery we have a wonderful selection of beautifully illustrated puzzles featuring art, gardens, birds, landscapes and more โ€” perfect for winter weekends, holiday homes or thoughtful gifts.

One question...

Are you a puzzle sorter or a puzzle diver?

Do you carefully sort all the edge pieces first, or jump straight in and hope for the best?

Some artists create work that simply makes people smile.

Vicki Comrie-Moore is one of them.

Working in clay for many years, Vicki is known for her colourful, quirky and instantly recognisable creations. Self-taught and inspired by a lifelong love of drawing, sculpture and the natural world, Vicki's work has found homes throughout New Zealand and beyond.

Many visitors will already know her much-loved Party People, which have become highly collectable over the years. We also stock a wonderful range of her kete, standing figures, candle holders, prickle pots and other unique pieces.

There's a warmth and sense of fun in everything Vicki creates, making her work as enjoyable to live with as it is to look at.

Whether you're starting a collection or adding to one, Vicki's work is always worth a closer look.

The best collections aren't built in a weekend.

They grow slowly.

One piece that makes you stop.

One piece that reminds you of a place, a memory or a feeling.

One piece that still makes you smile every time you walk past it.

Many of our clients don't begin by setting out to become collectors. They simply find something they connect with and take it home.

Over time, those individual pieces begin to tell a story.

These vibrant leaves by Liz McAuliffe are painted in acrylic on canvas and inspired by the natural forms found around us every day. Some reflect the distinctive shapes of gum leaves, while others draw inspiration from the organic patterns and colours associated with Hundertwasser's work.

Art doesn't need to fill a wall.

Sometimes it starts with a single piece that feels right.

Available at Little Black Gallery 394B Kerikeri Road, open 11.00am to 3.00pm today.

Over time, that became the inspiration behind this piece.

A long strand of freshwater pearls in soft, unexpected colours โ€” each one slightly different, each one adding its own character to the whole.

The result is a necklace that feels effortless, elegant and individual.

The sort of piece that works just as easily with linen and denim as it does with evening wear.

What Makes a Crystalline Glaze So Special?

Those distinctive circular patterns aren't painted or carved into the surface. They're crystals that have actually grown within the glaze during firing.

Crystalline glazes are among the most fascinating techniques in ceramics. During a carefully controlled firing process, crystals develop within the molten glaze, creating patterns that can never be replicated exactly.

Temperature, timing and chemistry all play a part, and even small variations can produce dramatically different results. The result is that every piece is completely unique.

This porcelain vessel by Maren Newport is a beautiful example of the process, revealing the remarkable crystal formations that make crystalline glazes so sought after by collectors and ceramic enthusiasts alike.

Summer Cherries โ€“ Judi Soutar

It's easy to mistake this work for a painting at first glance, but Summer Cherries is an original coloured pencil work by Judi Soutar.

The delicate detail of the woven basket, lace cloth and glossy cherries showcases the remarkable precision and patience of the medium. Rich in texture and beautifully observed, it captures the quiet beauty of everyday objects.
