Masterclass

Elizabeth Le Pla - ELF Miniatures

Whilst at college Elizabeth designed and sold soft toys and subsequently, while a resident in Italy, she ran her own very successful jewellery shop, for which she designed and made her own jewellery.

After returning to the UK and having been introduced to the world of miniatures, she decided to concentrate on furniture that reflected design in the 20th century, and she has remained at the forefront of the development of modern miniatures for more than 12 years.

Elizabeth specialises in fitted kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms, and makes a vast range of furniture and accessories for the whole house. Her products range from fully bespoke individually designed rooms to modular kit systems.

Each kitchen goes through the same design process as a full size one & Liz's attention to detail means that she always gets it right.

You can watch our film to see her in action (right hand column)
