About Me
Desirée Lafuente was born in Logroño, La Rioja, Spain, where she studied Business Administration and Management Information Systems. Although this was her profession for several years, she always felt attracted to the decorative arts and design.
It was not until 1997 that she discovered the world of miniatures. After two years of self-taught training, she began creating her first commissioned pieces.
Her signature creations are upholstered furniture in 1:12 scale, inspired by different periods and styles. Each piece is handcrafted using fine wood, natural leather and a variety of fabrics, and is finished with meticulous attention to detail.
Her work has been published in several specialist magazines in Spain and internationally. Her pieces are held by collectors around the world.
