Interior designers Mariana Tedim and Samantha Milne have joined forces to launch Callida Collective, a new homewares brand dedicated to refined craftsmanship and understated luxury. We are in love with their debut stone matchstick holder.
Their debut collection of sculptural stone pieces seamlessly merges artistry with function, offering thoughtfully designed homewares that elevate everyday living.
Designed with a focus on timeless design and heirloom quality, the first collection showcases candle holders (available in qreen quartz, levanto rosso, and travertine), matchstick holders (in travertine, red travertine, and lilac quartz) and curved edge trays (available in travertine and viola calacatta).
Each piece is crafted from carefully selected stone, emphasising natural textures, organic forms and a harmonious balance between beauty and function. The collection embodies Callida Collectiveโs philosophy: homewares should feel curated, not mass-produced, designed to enrich a space with both presence and purpose.
โAt the heart of Callida Collective is a commitment to thoughtful, enduring design,โ says Samantha. โThese are pieces meant to be lived with and loved; effortless yet elevated.โ
Drawing from their deep experience in interior design, the pair understand how subtle details transform a space. Their designs embrace a warm, modern minimalism that speaks to a new era of intentional living.
โEvery piece in this collection is designed with intentionโnot just as decor, but as an extension of a well-lived home,โ adds Mariana.
Callida Collective launches at a time when many consumers are moving away from fast interiors, instead seeking well-crafted, meaningful pieces that stand the test of time.
The debut collection launched last week and is available exclusively online.
