Straw marquetry · Doha
Rosewood Doha Ballroom
Composed for the ballroom of the Rosewood in Doha, this sunburst of straw marquetry radiates from its centre across a grand scale — laid blade by blade, like all of Ariana’s straw work, yet vast enough to crown a ballroom.
Scale changes nothing about the craft: every blade is still split, flattened and placed by hand. It only multiplies the patience.
