About Us

Welcome to Paper Republic, a curated collection of all things beautiful. A home for artisan-crafted goods from around the world, and right here in Australia. From handcrafted Leather Journals to greeting cards for every occasion, and the perfect touch to make a house a home, we have something for everyone.

Paper Republic was launched in Melbourne, Australia in 2014, and has built a strong following of loyal customers in Melbourne and beyond. We return to an era where beautiful things endure. We proudly present an outstanding range of products in a relaxed and inviting shopping experience, consistent throughout our Camberwell and CBD located Stores, and of course, online. At Paper Republic, we source high-quality artisan creations from around the globe, accompanied by a strong focus on Australian-designed and manufactured products, which feature heavily throughout the store.

From humble beginnings opening our first store in Camberwell, we have grown and evolved into the Paper Republic you know and love today, the sky is our limit. Eventually, we introduced our online presence to our customers, making our beautiful store available to all, within Australia and Internationally. As of April 2023, we proudly opened our second store, right in the heart of it all. Our stunning store dead centre of the historical icon that is The Royal Arcade, Melbourne CBD. The exquisite architecture, buzz of excitement, historical iconography, and location of our newest location in the Royal Arcade is truly a perfect match for us. 

We are a hub of beautiful creations, including internationally sourced artisan goods, only available in Australia from us at Paper Republic. Inspired by art, history, culture, and passion, our wide range of goods has been carefully selected with every need and passion in mind. From hand-crafted greeting cards for all sorts of occasions to fine Italian Leather Journals, Pens and stationery, warming Candles and Home Fragrance, or the perfect pop of colour to brighten up your home, we have it all.

As we share on our social media, in-store, and especially on our Blog, we love Paper Republic and know that you will too. Follow along our journey, and if you feel like reaching out to us, we’d love to hear from you! Follow us on socials, subscribe to our emails, and keep an eye out for new additions to our range.

With Love, Paper Republic.
