On Tuesday, we welcomed editors and journalists for dinner to celebrate our OKA Icons Collection, a selection of pieces loved by our customers and celebrated for their longevity, alongside an exclusive preview of our first-ever wallpaper collection, dining beneath a canopy of print and pattern.   The following morning, we invited our trade clients, tastemakers, and friends of OKA to join us for breakfast and celebrate these two exciting milestones, all set within a beautiful historic building once used to paint theatrical backdrops, a space steeped in creativity and craftsmanship, and a perfectly fitting setting for OKA. Thank you to Balfour Winery for kindly providing us with their English Sparkling Rosé.

Iconic by Design: Allow us to introduce OKA Icons  Some designs have become synonymous with the OKA aesthetic – eclectic, layered, travelled – and are celebrated for their enduring appeal - we call them OKA Icons. Rooted in our founding ethos of expert craftsmanship, iconic pattern and quality materials, these enduring designs have shaped the OKA aesthetic since 1999, and it’s this trio of winning ingredients that still go into everything we entrust our talented makers to create. From hand-painted Chinoiserie and beautifully woven rattan, to celebrated OKA patterns like Sheki, Areca and Ocellus, each Icon is created to stand the test of time and become a future heirloom. That sense of longevity is at the heart of what makes an Icon. As Sue Jones, our Co-Founder and Creative Director, reflects: “Icons really are never planned... they often catch us unaware. One could safely say that an icon evolves and becomes much loved after a period of time.” Our Icons tell the story of OKA: inspired by global travel, made by skilled artisans, and designed with unwavering attention to detail. But the story of OKA Icons has only just begun. In fact, it’s only the first chapter with Sue recently travelling back to India to meet with our skilled artisans to discuss what’s next. Channelling the same passion and obsession for everything craftsmanship and design as we did all those years ago, time will tell what new designs become future heirlooms. We, for one, are excited about what lies ahead.  Watch Sue Jones, our Co-Founder and Creative Director, reflect on her journey to India and the making of our Icons.
