The Art of Natural Upholstery

Where tradition meets comfort

Experience the timeless craft of upholstery using natural materials that breathe, adapt, and endure. Our approach honors centuries-old techniques while creating furniture that becomes more comfortable with age.

Unlike synthetic alternatives, natural padding materials like horsehair and coconut coir work in harmony with your home's environment, regulating temperature and maintaining their shape through decades of use.

Why Natural Materials Matter

Breathability

Natural fibers allow air to circulate freely, preventing moisture buildup and maintaining a comfortable seating surface year-round. This natural ventilation keeps furniture fresh and prevents the musty odors common with synthetic materials.

Durability

When properly maintained, natural padding materials can outlast synthetic alternatives by decades. Horsehair springs back to its original shape, while coconut coir maintains its structure even under constant use.

The Materials We Work With

Curled Horsehair

Known for its exceptional springiness and resilience, curled horsehair creates a supportive yet comfortable foundation. Each strand naturally curls, creating tiny air pockets that enhance breathability.

Coconut Coir

Derived from coconut husks, this fibrous material offers excellent moisture-wicking properties. It's naturally resistant to mold and provides firm support that maintains its shape over time.

Needled Wool

Soft, resilient, and naturally temperature-regulating, needled wool creates a comfortable top layer. Its natural crimp provides both cushioning and support, adapting to your body's contours.

Traditional Craftsmanship

Our upholstery process follows time-honored techniques passed down through generations. Each piece begins with a foundation of hand-tied springs, creating a flexible base that responds naturally to weight and movement.

Every stitch tells a story

The padding layers are carefully built up, with each material chosen for its specific properties. Horsehair provides the spring, coconut coir adds structure, and wool offers the final comfort layer.

A Sustainable Choice

Choosing natural materials isn't just about comfort and durability—it's also an environmentally conscious decision. These renewable resources biodegrade naturally at the end of their long lifespan, unlike synthetic foams that persist in landfills for centuries.

By supporting traditional upholstery techniques, you're investing in furniture that can be repaired, restored, and passed down through generations, reducing waste and preserving craftsmanship.
