Casha...who???

CASHALOOLA is a brand by the designer maker Crystal Griffiths.

"She creates soft sculptures, based on her love of animals and fantasy. Each doll is handmade with their own personality and sense of style.

Using vintage fabrics, Crystal embroiders and embellishes with fur, beads and Swarovski crystals to create one off masterpieces combining simplicity with ornamentation."

She also works to commissions, creating bespoke pieces to the specific styling of the client.

I adore how her creatures are lighthearted and fun yet sophisticated and ooze luxury- the type of product that is simply beautiful to look at yet has no need to be mundanely mounted on a wall in a frame. My very glamourous grandmother of 86 would adore these pieces, I think thats what draws me to them, they very much remind me of her.

I feel the products are reasonably priced too, considering they are all handmade. The website channels the same kind of luxury feel- perfect for the brand, with interactivity like mailing lists and live feeds it has a really nice feel to it.

She not only sells the dolls but her prints and gift cards are a lovely range too- as we would think in the industry, these are the "bread and butter" products...
