Lou Peters, Founder of Upper Dhali

Female Founded • Purpose Led

Upper Dhali® was founded by Lou Peters in 2012, emerging from a period of personal grief in which creating became a means of reflection and quiet healing.

Learning the art of doll artistry and creating beautiful dolls soon evolved beyond form and technique into a considered practice of preserving others' stories and treasured memories.

Today, Upper Dhali® represents a new generation of heirloom-quality keepsakes — where craftsmanship, sentiment, and story are brought together to create pieces intended to be treasured for generations.

Made in Brisbane, Australia

Upper Dhali® is a humble home-based studio in beautiful, sun-filled Brisbane, Queensland, where each keepsake is made thoughtfully and individually by hand.

Our dolls are art, created through a slow, deliberate process that prioritises craftsmanship over volume. Creating from a small studio allows heirloom techniques to remain central to the making process, ensuring every piece is finished with care, intention, and an uncompromising standard of quality.

Certified Australian Made – Upper Dhali
Heirloom Quality Guarantee

Heirloom Quality • Guaranteed

Every Upper Dhali keepsake is created to be loved through the generations and is supported by a 5-year manufacturing warranty.

Materials and construction methods are carefully considered at every stage of the making process, ensuring each piece is designed to endure — not only in appearance, but in structure — so it may be treasured now and passed on in the years to come.

Each keepsake is created with great care and attention to detail, and should any concerns arise, Upper Dhali is committed to working closely with you to ensure your piece meets the standard it was created to uphold.
