BERYL MAVIS & COCO

Beryl, Mavis & Coco designed by Marnie Moyle is elegant in her spiral form. She is a delight to behold from within, the sumptuous feather filled cushion is luxurious and the sprung base offers good support.

Unlike standard lounge furniture where one faces out, ‘Beryl, Mavis & Coco’ offers a myriad of seating options; private space for reading, playing a console, listening to music or just purely for relaxation. Yet it can also be shared with friends and/or loved ones in the art of conversation.

As space is at a premium within any environment, furniture which presents the user with more than just a place to watch TV or have a cup of tea is always welcomed. ‘Beryl, Mavis & Coco’ is mood furniture and creates a space within a space.

The component parts are made using reclaimed timbers and the upholstery by Urban Upholstery uses traditional craftsmanship and materials as Rubberised Horsehair, Coir, Hessian and Recycled cotton textiles. The feet are made from locally sourced Green Oak and turned by Marnie. Although the springs are not made in the UK but they can be recycled!

The unusual shape and strict sustainability criteria presented it’s challenges, it was important that the product would stand the test of time within both a residential and commercial environment. ‘Beryl Mavis & Coco’ has been made using traditional methods so that she can easily be reupholstered at any time.
She is covered in row canvas and she will be available in a selection of finest English Wools, Hemp and a Stinging Nettle/ Wool mix. Alternatively, a fabric of your own choosing may be applied.
