The Matryoshka collection by Olga Engel was born from a trip to Japan and Engel’s fascination with Japanese minimalism and its restrained aesthetic. From this approach, Engel reimagined the form of the traditional matryoshka doll as a contemporary collection of chairs

Each chair takes its silhouette from the rounded, nested shape of the doll itself, with a softly arched back that curves seamlessly into the seat. Clusters of cylindrical legs echo the same layered logic, grounding the piece with a quiet, sculptural rhythm

Available in plush bouclé or solid wood, Matryoshka balances softness and structure, translating a traditional form into something entirely modern

Handcrafted by Olga Engel in Latvia, Matryoshka is strictly limited edition

OLGA ENGEL

French and Latvian artist, Olga Engel creates work that combines luxury, minimalism, and functionality with a sense of character, powerful emotional undercurrents, and a touch of irony. Her practice is fueled by a desire to metamorphose ordinary objects into expressive works of art by giving them new, unexpected functions. For Engel, beauty and harmony in art can only manifest if there is a strong, sensory, emotional underpinning. Her work, therefore, is intentionally and unequivocally personal, born from her experiences, emotions, and memories, inviting us to recall intimate moments in our own lives

Engel collaborates with master artisans in both France and Latvia to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship in her designs. She is a graduate of the Moscow Textile Academy and the Moscow Design School, and continued her training at KLC School of Design in London, where she worked closely with British designer Mark Humphrey. Her work, found in private collections across Europe and USA, has been featured at premiere design exhibitions including Salone Milano, Design Miami, Salon Art + Design New York, PAD Paris, and PAD Geneva
