Polka Luka
Jewellery and Object
Polka Luka is an Australian design label creating contemporary resin jewellery and homewares with clean lines, organic forms, and luminous, custom-mixed colours. Each piece is handmade, resulting in subtle variations and a unique finish. Drawing inspiration from modernist art, architecture, and Alexandra Freeman’s extensive travels through Asia, the brand reflects a distinctly Australian sensibility—spirited, bold, and vibrant.

Polka Luka’s Creative Director, Alexandra Freeman, has a background in art history, cultural studies, and language. Over eight years of travel and work in cultural conservation and sustainability across South West China, Tibet, and South East Asia contributed to the diverse experiences that inspired the creation of the Polka Luka label in 2006.
Alexandra’s time in these regions also highlighted the critical role of equitable and sustainable trade in enhancing people’s livelihoods and quality of life. Her combined passions for vibrant colour, streamlined design, and ethical production form the foundation of Polka Luka’s philosophy. Designing with an acknowledgment of the rush of contemporary life, Alexandra aims to create pieces that simplify busy lives—helping to streamline wardrobes and elevate living spaces with thoughtful, functional, and joyful design.
