Valerie Wade
Member of the following market(s):
London
For the last thirty years, Valerie Wade has been supplying interior decorators, architects and fashion designers with her unique mix of furniture, lighting and objects. Ranging seamlessly from the 1920s to the 1980s, the collection is peppered with international names; Paolo Buffa, Oswaldo Borsani, Venini, Jean-Michel Frank, Marcel Breuer, Karl Springer, Steve Chase and Cedric Hartman. Unnamed pieces are chosen on aesthetics, function and wit.
Valerie’s style intuition was honed during her early days as a fashion and design editor for the London Sunday Times Magazine.
The showroom is never predictable: Hollywood glamour sits with classic mid-century Modernism, Art Deco and globally sourced contemporary pieces.
Ninety percent of her bespoke collection is made in England and emphasizes craftsmanship and timeless allure. Her bespoke lighting is designed to flatter and enhance mood. A wall of her signature solid brass, hand-crafted Lotus Lights is a showstopper.
