Karen Henriksen creates tailored hats and caps for men and women, bringing a milliner’s sensibility, playfulness and craftsmanship to everyday headwear. A singular approach to pattern-cutting is at the heart of each design, combined with the enduring aim of finding the perfect balance of elegance, innovation and practicality.
Now turning her attention to interiors, Studio KH is an exciting new direction. Karen has re-imagined and applied her couture millinery skills and design ethos to create a range of handmade lightshades.
Each piece is individually sculpted, draped and hand-stitched, some evoking clouds, while others conjure thoughts of origami or foliage. All share Karen’s unmistakable handwriting, with their playful, asymmetric elegance and lightness of touch.
