Equally special is its last provenance, once belonging to today’s tastemaker and art collectors Carolina and (ex-husband) Ian Irving. Carolina is a renowned textile designer (exclusive to the trade), Creative Director of Home for Oscar De La Renta, former Editor at Elle Décor, House and Garden, and Vogue Living. She’s been featured in House Beautiful, World of Interiors, Domino Magazine, Traditional Home Magazine, British Vogue and more. Ian is an internationally known master in English and European silver, is also known for his exceptional taste, expertise and style. As a Curator and Interior Designer, these are the unique qualities I seek – knowing it will transcend time, always in style, never trendy. If you enjoy one-of-a-kind pieces with a great story, these pillows are for you!
