Around Waterhole Reversible Penefold
Around Waterhole Reversible Penefold – inspired by Nambooka’s Around Waterhole Dreaming.
Handmade in Australia from soft, breathable cotton, this reversible Penefold is designed for comfort, movement, and everyday joy.
Wear it on the printed side or the plain side, and enjoy it as an easy, playful piece for warm days and layered moments alike.
Artwork Meaning:
Created by Aboriginal artist Nambooka, Around Waterhole Dreaming depicts the happenings around a waterhole on a summer day. People wander through the bush to gather food and drink from the waterholes, while animals also come in search of water. Through footsteps, gum leaves, wildlife, and flowing tracks, the artwork reflects daily life, movement, and the rich connection between people, animals, and Country.
Material:
Printed side in soft, breathable cotton, paired with a quilting cotton reverse side that has a little more body and structure to give the Penefold its easy A-line shape.
Sizes Available: 80 cm / 100 cm
Fit: Easy A-line flare fit
Length Note: Depending on the child’s height and size selected, the dress may fall around knee to calf length.
Size Notes: The sizes indicated refer to the child’s height range. At the corresponding height, the Penefold is designed to fall around the knee.
Care with Love:
Cold gentle machine wash below 30°C.
Line dry in shade to preserve the richness of the colours and the softness of the fabric.
Please note for our Aboriginal range:
After the first wash, a natural shrinkage of approximately 3–5% may occur, revealing a subtle band of coloured print along the edge of the plain side. This gentle reveal is an intentional part of the design.
Handmade:
Designed and handmade in Sydney, Australia
Processing:
I will process all your orders in 4 to 6 business days, and send you an email notification with your parcel’s tracking number.

“Around Waterhole represents to me the rhythm of our daily lives, with a little hint of mischief and discovery. I can imagine our lil’ one going on an adventure, discovering life around the waterhole, resting under a tree, or perhaps running around the trees after. It is hard not to choose nature with our lil’ ones, when it offers the full suite of sun, play, laughter, movement, and plenty of food and drink. I love this representation in our Reversible Penefold.”
