Our Story

Harry and Kit began not with a business plan (at first), but with a feeling. For founder Lillie Holcombe, it was a deep love for beautiful, well-made things—pieces with patina, purpose, and presence. After years studying and working in the city, life took a new turn when she fell in love with a farmer and moved back to regional Queensland. At first, she wasn’t sure what her next chapter would look like in a small rural town—until she stumbled upon an old tin shed. Something about its quiet charm sparked an idea. She’d spent years travelling, collecting, and curating treasures from artisans around the world—what if she brought it all home?

 

In 2019, that spark became Harry and Kit—a boutique born from a belief in slow living and meaningful style. Named after two beloved dogs, the store opened in Goondiwindi and quickly became a destination for locals and travellers alike. Drawing on her background in fashion and interiors, Lillie filled the space with one-of-a-kind pieces—rattan and teak from Indonesia, ceramics from Japan, beautifully made fashion from Australian labels and unique furniture. As the business grew, so did its community, leading to a second store in Toowoomba in late 2023 and a growing online presence across Australia.

 

But at its core, Harry and Kit remains deeply personal. It’s a reflection of Lillie’s journey, her love for the land, and her passion for thoughtful design. Whether it’s a beautifully designed dress or a chair carved with intention, every piece carries a story—and invites you to slow down, savour the details, and live with soul.

  

At Harry and Kit, we’re inspired by both the world beyond and the beauty of life at home.
Our vision is to bring extraordinary, handmade furniture and homewares from across the globe to the heart of regional and rural Australia. We’re here for the everyday dreamers, home decorators, and design lovers—helping them create spaces that feel fresh, modern, and deeply personal. Spaces they fall more in love with, every time they walk through the door.
