The Agora isn't only online. Throughout the year we take our stalls to markets around Christchurch and Selwyn — bringing the Theophora family off the screen and onto the table.
Each market features one primary brand from the family. You might find Kosmae's vintage costume jewellery at one, and botanicals, keepsakes, or another of our ranges at the next, depending on the season and the setting. Whichever brand is on the table, we're always happy to talk about any of the others — including Clotho cross-stitch finishing intakes or Hestia recipe digitisation — so do come and say hello, whatever brought you over.
There's something markets give that a website can't: the chance to see a piece in person, ask a question, and meet us face to face. We'd love to see you there.
When a brand is out at a market, its online shop is unavailable for that day, so our stock stays accurate across both the table and the till. Everything reopens once we're home and have updated our listings. If you spot something online you love, it'll be waiting once we're back — or come and find it in person at the market.
