Mohair does something that most upholstery fabrics cannot. It holds light. Not dramatically, the way velvet does. Continuously, from every angle, at every hour. Run your hand across it and you feel the difference immediately: smooth, almost cool to the touch, with a weight and density that reads as genuinely substantial. A room with mohair upholstery reads differently at noon than it does at dusk, and that quality is not a trick of styling. It is the fiber itself.
01
Lawrence Sofa
The Lawrence occupies a room in a way that most furniture cannot. Named for Debbie Lawrence, built to honor her legacy through refined detail and enduring style. Mohair confirms the sofa's character rather than competing with it. The Aether collection at this scale, Toffee or Espresso against the sofa's proportions, produces something that belongs in a room built around permanence. Sit in it and you notice the fabric first: the way it gives slightly under pressure, cool and smooth on contact, then warming to the body. The difference between two colorways is not something a screen communicates accurately. The sample is the decision.
02
Komi Dining Chair
Drawn from the oldest forests in the world, the Komi Chair is shaped in oak, each curve carrying a reverence for nature's patience and craft. At the dining table, upholstery endures more than almost any other piece in the home. Mohair earns its place here. The smooth fiber resists the daily friction of a dining chair in use, and the sheen it holds means the chair reads as considered even in rooms with strong material competition. The softness at contact, not plush, not stiff, but precisely weighted, makes it a chair you return to at the end of a long table.
03
Onda Bench
Named for the Italian word for wave, the Onda takes that reference directly in the kidney-bean curve of the seat. At bench scale, mohair does something specific: the curve means the sheen is never uniform across the surface, always shifting, always giving the piece more presence than its dimensions suggest. Touch it and there is a quiet precision to the surface, taut, smooth, and cool. Many clients who specify the Lawrence start here. The logic is sound.
