Underground Boutique: Shiva Designs

26 June 2011

We stubbled upon Shiva Designs, the tiny boutique in the basement of Rima Srivastava's condo, and it made us very, very happy.

Rima is a jewellery designer and homeware & gift shop owner from Melbourne, who has a knack for finding very precious things.

Having to sell her shop when leaving Australia, she now has a tiny boutique in her basement, with a stunning collection of homewares and gift products from international boutique designers.

We had to have a lush Pratten eelskin wallet, (darn that fetish for eelskin!) and at her amazing prices we were pleased we stopped at one.

We were drooling over the Samantha Robinson ceramic wear (as pictured). Samantha, started selling her vases with flowers in them at the Bondi markets just two years ago. Her designers are organic and laid back, yet skillfully handmade, and now internationally renowned.

We also loved the funky fabrics from Pippijoe, and the divine soaps and scents from Sohum in their vintage-chic style wrappers.

Perfect for a girlfriends birthday (or a treat for one-self), pop into Shiva Designs for a shop and sticky-beak, just give Rima a call on 9184 6049, or email her at rima@shiva-designs.com.

Shiva Designs, 2 Martin Place, 31-02 Martin Place Residences, Singapore, 237 988, by appointment. p. 9184 6049 e. rima@shiva-designs.com.

I have tried ringing the number for Shiva Designs listed above and it says that it has been disconnected. Does Shiva Designs still exist? If so has it moved or does it have a new phone number?

Thanks

We just checked with Shiva Designs - the number is working - maybe just check your digits? Alternatively you can email her on shiva_designs@yahoo.com.
