Aster + Quail Studio, Ltd.

Aster + Quail Studio, Ltd. Our illuminated paper centerpieces are all intended to excite and engage your guests. We love working with clients on custom designs. Enjoy! Allison + Elizabeth

We strive for elegance, romance, and a balance of dramatic flair and architectural resonance in our designs. Allison has a background in architecture, and Elizabeth in theatrical costume design, so we see our aesthetic as a result of this combined experience. It is our specialty since each piece is made to order. Our client relationships are very important to us, and we will develop a color palett

e or unique design to suit your event. Each Aster + Quail piece is hand crafted by the two of us in our tiny Manhattan studio, which functions as a design lab, manufacturing plant and shipping facility. Some days you'll find us scouring bookstores for old books and maps or marveling at flora in the New York Botanical Garden, other days you'll find us assembling paper flowers in the studio or designing new products together. We always break for a pot of tea, and for a snuggle with Basel, our security dog and product tester. We hope our designs will inspire and surprise your guests!

We just love the relationships we get to build with our customers!  

These custom pendants were created for The Grove Academy, early education centers located in Australia, to match their wallpaper. After working together on this custom design a few years ago, they have since come back to order the same pieces for each new center they open. And each time we are blown away that they want to purchase more of our lights. It really is a surprise and a delight each and every time. We are currently working on our fifth set of lights for them, and we hope that they brighten the day for all the littles who get to learn and grown in these gorgeous classrooms.  

Thanks for being some of our best customers we are so very grateful to have built this relationship over the last two years.

This custom Beresford light will always be one of our favorites.   Design by:  Photo by:

Just wait... every time someone told me how beautiful our flowers were yesterday my response was “Thank you, and just wait until they light up!” It may have taken all day but light up they did! ⁣

We are so grateful for everyone’s kind words yesterday in person and on here about our flowers. This was our first large scale installation and it could not have gone better! We can’t wait to see what’s next.

It’s reveal day! We can finally share that we collaborated with this year on a large installation for their main co-working space at ! ⁣

We’ve been working hard behind the scenes over the last few weeks developing these giant paper flowers that will all light up as the sun sets! The flowers are nestled in some beautiful p***y willow branches and augmented with paper leaves created from vintage sheet music tinted pink. ⁣

We are so excited with how this installation turned out and can’t wait to see where these new designs go! If you are interested in an installation like this for your event we’d love to chat. And the beauty of these paper flowers is they can make your event feel extra special, and then you can bring them home to decorate your walls for years to come. ⁣

Living up to this year’s mantra of !

Finding the beauty in the simple color palette of a winter without snow. Happy Friday everyone!

We anchored the space with this branch hanging at the top of the stairs for our amazing harpist to sit under, as if she was sitting under a beautiful flowering tree. Each flower is 2+ feet across, and we attached them to a beautiful fallen sycamore branch we found in a few years ago. We love this combination of nature and nature-inspired. In fact, you might just see it again in a special project coming up soon (*cough* *cough*) 😉 Thanks again for the chance to collaborate! ⁣

And check out our stories for a few video clips so you can hear the gorgeous Korean harp for yourselves, and catch a glimpse of this beautiful dance solo.
