Brisbane-born designer and treasure-hunter, Jessy, started her retail brand, Molten Store, from a tiny corner of her Brisbane apartment in 2011. It's now bloomed into an online empire, shape-shifting monthly into pop-up stores around Brisbane and Australia.
With equal love for her hometown Brisbane and world travel destinations (Mexico and Indonesia are in sight!) Jessy creates pieces inspired by her travels and the ever-sunny, beach-adjacent Brisbane.
We tagged along with Jessy the day she launched her Queensland summer-inspired fragrance at a special lunch and went to play in her enchanted pop-up store after, extracting all her Brisbane secrets along the way.

“Brisbane is a wonderful city to launch a new business; there’s an undercurrent of opportunity that is irresistible to a dreamer.”
James Street
“This is Molten Store’s spiritual home - we’ve hosted three pop up stores in this precinct. There’s a diverse mix of people doing clever things and it’s a real-time homage to neighbourhood retail.”
Jamies Espresso
“If I had permission to install a hammock and a shower at Jamies Espresso in New Farm, I would probably never leave.”
Ben’s Burgers
“A casual meal with good tunes and complimentary Hershey’s Kisses available at the counter is the equation of happiness.”
State Library of Queensland
“Their new design sectioni s my go-to destination for an Inspiration Hour. Think fashion journals, design textbooks and handmade zines lifted from cities like New York and Paris.”
Riverwalk
“This is a moment’s stroll away from my home in New Farm. A stroll along the water reinvigorates me, and I view the structure as a symbol of our city’s optimism. Progress can be a beautiful thing.”
