Meet the makers exhibiting at INSPIRED 2017: Daniel Lacey
This May (3-6) will see the much-anticipated return of INSPIRED – the luxury contemporary silverware and furniture selling showcase at the Goldsmiths Centre during London Craft Week.
This leading exhibition, now in its fifth year, brings together some of the UK’s finest and up-and-coming silversmiths and furniture makers in one unique curated platform.
As we get ready for the show, in the coming weeks we will be giving you the lowdown on this year’s designer/makers attending and why INSPIRED should be your number one destination for bespoke furniture. This week we find out more about Daniel Lacey.
Now based back in the Scottish Borders, Daniel regularly continues to work for clients in the south east of England and elsewhere.
His training at Parnham – by some of the very best, with some of the best – ensures that demand for his work – whether through commission or exhibition pieces – is constant.
Following several prestigious bespoke guild marks from The Furniture Makers’ Company, Daniel was chosen for the David Savage book ‘Furniture with Soul’ as one of the 10 young best up and coming makers in the world. Owners of his pieces include preeminent collectors of art in the USA, and members of the Royal Household of Brunei.
Wherever possible he uses local indigenous timbers – often using his own mobile sawmill to provide a complete service from tree to finished piece.
