Alabaster Trader

The Verdict

Housed in pop-up locations throughout Noosa for the past three years, Alabaster Trader—a brand that’s synonymous with flawless interior style and design—has revealed its brand new flagship store, and it’s beautiful. 

Found in a warehouse in Noosa’s industrial warehouse, you’d be forgiven for not expecting much as you wind your way to Alabaster Trader’s location. But, step inside and you’ll be whisked into an ethereal world of Indian furniture and homewares, sourced by owner Karmin Kenny, and refinished in a palette of whites and neutrals by craftspeople in India. 

Spread across the store you’ll find one-off old Indian cupboards, day beds and chests in bleached out colours, perfect for a coastal abode. And if small goods are on your hit list, then expect unique candleholders, kitchenware (think: bowls, chopping boards and more) old wooden pots, antique hooks and so much more to make it hard to leave empty-handed.
