Thanks for visiting us...
If you're tired of generic, overseas‑made products with limited design input and little focus on sustainability, Tallgum offers a different path. We’re Jeff and Sue Tickner — founders, designers, and makers of our Australian, eco‑friendly range.
Since 2020, we’ve been creating contemporary pieces for religious schools. We began making small crosses for feast days & graduations and have since expanded to larger crosses & symbols for classrooms, reception areas and chapels.
Our design's honour each school’s unique identity and mission. With Jeff’s decades of design and teaching experience and Sue’s dedication to exceptional service, we’re here to collaborate with you on something meaningful for your school.
