NZ Made & Vintage



An aim of specialising in product which is quirky, different and a little bit of fun, makes newcomer to K’ Road, The Bread and Butter Letter, a vintage, craft and tea store, an ideal fit with the street’s character.

Owners Rose Howcroft and Sarah Firmston relocated their two-year-old business to K’ Road in March in the hope of bringing a taste of the anticipation and excitement of a weekend craft market to customers  - all week long.  Hand made New Zealand craft ranging from kiwiana-themed tea towels to crocheted cushions supplied by makers across a spectrum encompassing young designers to grandmothers, festoon the shelves of their newly-renovated premises at 225 K’ Road.    Add to this a selection of vintage and upcycle clothing and accessories and a certified organic range of locally blended teas boasting flavours such as Classic Black, Fresh Mint and Lemonish and the menu of ‘nana-ish’ offerings refashioned to meet current street-cred requirements is complete.

Providing  a platform for secret crafters  who are “not loud about what they make, but are inspiring and forward thinking in their work” is the philosophy behind The Bread and Butter Letter, ‘ says Rose.
