About Us

Refined is a store born out of a lifelong passion for making and creating. Blake Rossiter is the creative behind Refined Handmade, starting the business in 2016 while studying. With crafting skills across a range of areas including sewing and woodwork, Blake always dreamed of starting his own business to share his creations with others. 
 
Over the past four years, Refined has continued to grow with an ever expanding and changing product range. 
 
We focus foremost on quality, producing products which are built to last. Our range includes a selection of bags, homewares and gifts, all handmade in Christchurch by Blake and his father.
