BAULCHIN is derived from the old English word “Balca” - dweller by the bank or ridge.

Baulchin is a tribute to Australian Authentic Luxury. A celebration of timeless craftsmanship, effortless elegance, and the quiet confidence of considered style.

For over a decade, I have dreamt of creating a wide brim hat unlike any other. Crafted from a scuba-like fabric reminiscent of swimwear, designed to move with the wearer and echo the fluid ease of the Australian landscape.

The name Baulchin honours my Nanna, Jilly. She was graceful, composed, and impeccably put together. She was never rushed, never overdone; her style spoke softly but with intention. To her, elegance was not an act of vanity but an expression of self-respect and the high standards she carried through life.

Baulchin is born of her spirit - uncomplicated, enduring, and beautifully self-assured.
