If you read the blog regularly you’ll know that I often feature pieces by Barker and Stonehouse, an independent family-owned furniture business and one of my favourite sources of trends and inspiration.
Well, just imagine my excitement when I discovered they were partnering with iconic Irish print designer Orla Kiely for the exclusive launch of her first ever upholstered furniture collection 😍. Known as ‘The Queen of Prints’, Kiely is famous for her bold use of pattern, mid-century aesthetic and retro palette.
The exclusive collection includes sofas, cocktail chairs, armchairs, bed frames and footstools, all upholstered in Kiely’s signature colour palette and iconic motifs. I’ve included some of my top picks below and you can shop the full collection here.
With its classic mid-century lines and a choice of 11 shades of velvet upholstery, the Mimosa sofa is the sofa of my dreams! Available in three sizes, plus as a chaise or snuggler, it can work in any size of room. Plus, it comes with your choice of scatter cushions from 10 classic Orla Kiely designs. The only question is do I want it in forest, dark grey, aubergine, rose or ochre?…
I’ve never really been a fan of having all matchy-matchy furniture. Instead I prefer a room full of unique pieces that you’ve collected over time and truly love. Why not add an armchair in a contrasting colour, such as the Linden chair, or a footstool in a funky print?
You know I love an upholstered bed, and the Dottie bedframe with its winged headboard and cheeky flash of the classic stem design is super stylish. Add the Donegal footstool to complete the ultimate bedroom oasis.
A striking accent chair is the perfect way to create a cosy corner you can retreat to. My top tip is to choose a chair you really love, making it less likely you’ll want to turn it into a chair-drobe or dumping ground! The funky retro vibe of the Una chair makes it a perfect choice.
So, what do you think? This is just a small selection from this amazing range which is available exclusively at Barker and Stonehouse until June. Shop the full Orla Kiely x Barker and Stonehouse collection online now.
