We are Silver Hippopotamus... Beth Scanlon Melfi and Kathy Scanlon McGovern.
Two sisters who decided to forgo the corporate world for a career filled with exploration, discovery and creativity. Our mother instilled in us a love of interior design and that partnered well with Kathy's marketing expertise and Beth's fine arts background.
As cliche as it sounds, it was over a lunch in Boston and notes on a cocktail napkin that we decided to take the plunge together. We soon found ourselves at salvage yards and vintage mill basements where our love of industrial design ignited.
Our journey has been nothing but joyful. The people we have met, the experiences we have had together, has made this decision the best one of our lives. Please join the journey with us and enjoy our collections. They were made with love and passion for great design and we hope they add a unique layer to your own personal space.
