table lamp accented with hand-made brass
circles and scratched-etched finish offset
by a creamy marble base; Moonlight vase
with antiqued silver finish evoking shadows
in the moonlight; and matching Moonlight
bowl.

People:
Aiveen Daly
Once a savvy marketer who turned
her creative hand to luxury furniture
upholstery, has just celebrated 10 years in
the industry.
In the early days, her bespoke tailoring
and signature style quickly made a name
for her, full of haute couture inspiration
and subtle glamour. Now 10 years on,
the studio has discreetly become the
little black book favourite, designing and
making for the world’s most exclusive
interiors projects.
Aiveen demonstrates British innovation
at its best: a specialist upholstery
company with the mix of traditional
technical skills and modern methods
combined with a real hunger for
innovation.
Working mainly on commissions
from her London atelier, the studio
uses luxurious embellishment and
fabric manipulation techniques to
adorn furniture and surfaces. From the
very decorative dining chairs which
incorporate multiple elements such
as metal work, hand embroidery,
pleating and pearls to the more simple
architectural details such as hand stitched
leather satchels incorporated into leather
panels.
In addition to taking bespoke
commissions, she also offers an edited
collection of made-to-order furniture and
accessories which can be found on her
newly launched website.
