About me
Every piece of wood has a story to tell and at DeVine Made I simply help it take shape. Decorative crafts have enhanced the beauty of everyday products throughout history and many are considered now valuable pieces of art. Let's bring back the functional beauty of art into our daily lives!
​
"When we create or appreciate art, we set free the spirit trapped within. That's why art arouses such joy. Art is the emotion, the pleasure of expressing life as it is. Those who see art are moved by its passion and strength, its intensity and beauty. That is why is impossible to separate life from art". Daisaku Ikeda
​
There is a great pleasure in bringing to life something that otherwise would go to waste. Reason why most of the wood used in DeVine Made is reclaimed or taken from the firewood pile!
Irene Molina Aguirre
Born in Madrid (Spain), a place where you breathe art in every corner, influenced by the mix of cultures and tradition. I moved to the UK in 2003 with a Tourism & Art History background and over the years I've developed a passion to introduce a bit of Art & Crafts in every home. For me DeVine is that force that moves you to do something amazing, that urge to create and inspire. The idea behind this concept started after sharing a good bottle of wine with a friend and the reason why I wanted to honour the vine tree with the name. If you could do anything with your life, what would you do? In my case this journey has taken me to create a variety of products in wood, to bring out the beauty of this wonderful material that is a state of art in itself.
