About Queen K

Queen K began with a spark of creativity — and a vintage lamp base found in a heritage Sydney home. When founder Karen was challenged to find the perfect shade for it, she uncovered not just a design solution, but a new direction. With a background in fashion and textile design, Karen combined her eye for colour, print, and form to create distinctive lampshades that celebrated bold pattern and modern nostalgia. When she couldn’t find fabrics that captured her vision, she began designing her own — prints that were playful, elegant, and unmistakably unique. From that first lampshade, Queen K has evolved into a design-led home and lifestyle brand known for its signature aesthetic: vintage glamour with a contemporary twist. Today, the collection showcases exclusive artist-designed prints across high-quality tea towels and other home treasures, offering statement pieces that bring character and colour to interiors. Each design tells a story — created to evoke joy, spark conversation, and celebrate the beauty of self-expression through the home.Read their story
