Color options

Our design furniture can be made in several color variations. You can choose the color of leather, canvas, and wood finish. If you have a specific color request in mind, please contact us.

Support leather / Strap leather

Support- / strap leather is the thicker leather that is used for making straps, armrests and other details on models such as Ari, Ilona, Inca and Sirocco. On the Ari chair you also have the option to dress your straps with the same upholstery leather used on the cushion to make a perfect color match between the cushion and the straps. You can order free leather samples by contacting us at info@norellfurniture.com.

Wood finish

We manufacture our furniture in ash, oak, teak and beech wood. Sirocco is made in ash, oak, teak or walnut. Ilona and Inca are only made in beech. Our teak is grown sustainably and is highly exclusive. Therefore it has a higher price. A more affordable alternative to teak, is ash/beech with a teak stain. We provide stains in a variety of colors. To order free wood finish samples please contact us at info@norellfurniture.com. We ship worldwide.
