A must-visit when exploring the Scenic Rim township of Kalbar is The Emporium Kalbar, a beautiful store brimming with touches from yesteryear in the landmark heritage-listed Wiss House building.

 The rural sibling of well-known and much-loved antique and collectables mecca, Empire Revival, which has been a highlight of the colourful Paddington fabric for many, many years, The Emporium Kalbar is also a treasure trive of days gone by.

Always on the lookout for signature pieces and items that have their own unique charm and character, a glance around the curated collection will take you on a tour around the country and across the globe that reflect the owner's penchant for travel.

Amidst the quirky, you’ll also find delightful homewares & soft furnishings, art by local painters, handmade cards and lovely, country-style furniture - some in original condition and some lovingly restored by talented craftsmen.

Impressive estate jewellery must-haves come and go as soon as they’re in the door, as do a tea party of perfect porcelain and vintage crockery – all headed off to their present-day forever homes.
