My name is Wanda and I am originally from Poland but Ireland has been my home for the past 16 years. I am a previous student of the Academy of Fine Arts, Krakow were I specialised in Applied Arts and Graphics. Over the years, I have transferred that artistic temperament towards the design and styling of home furniture. It was from this passion that Monkey Décor was created :)

This Ginkgo Biloba inspired bureau was build around contrasts: matt & shine, dark & bright, classic & modern.
I've chosen black and dark shades of greys as a canvas for sparkling copper accents. I used copper leafs and some metallic paint to achieve the look.
I love leaving the best parts of the original woodwork so i left old intarsia around the edges and i refreshed the top of the piece by applying general finishes maple woodstain.
