Grey Textured Chair — Austins Grey Textured Chair – Austins

Two materials. One chair. The whole room transformed.

"The tension between the polished black shell and the rough, chunky boucle inside is what makes this chair work. I didn't want to smooth that tension away — I wanted to celebrate it. The deep tufting pushes the fabric into big, generous biscuit sections that feel luxurious under your hands. The shell holds it all together with quiet authority."

The Making of the Grey Textured Chair

Designed by Harsha

The Grey Textured Chair was born from the idea that contrast is a form of luxury. The matte black moulded shell is precise and graphic; the heathered boucle interior is soft and textured. Together they create a chair that satisfies both the eye and the body — a piece that rewards the person who takes the time to sit in it.

01

Heathered Boucle

Salt-and-pepper heathered grey boucle fabric with a chunky, multi-tone fleck — a texture that captures warmth and depth in its weave, unlike any plain upholstery. ::

02

Deep Button Tufting

Individual button tufting through dense high-loft foam creates pronounced symmetrical biscuit sections — a skilled hand-finishing technique that delivers both visual rhythm and physical plushness. ::

03

Moulded Egg Shell

The outer body is precision-moulded into a smooth egg form with inward-curling wing ears — structural rigidity and sculptural silhouette delivered in a single clean shell.

Frequently Asked

Before You Order

How long does it take to make the Grey Textured Chair?
6–8 weeks from order confirmation. We build one piece at a time — frame first, then upholstery, then a final hand-finish — so the timeline reflects real bench-time, not warehouse stock.
Can I customise the dimensions, leather, or wood?
Yes. Almost every dimension can be adjusted within structural limits, and the leather and wood swatches shown are starting points — speak to a designer if you'd like us to source something specific.
How does delivery work, and where do you ship?
We deliver across India with white-glove placement included. International shipping is available on request — our team will coordinate freight, customs, and last-mile placement at the destination.
What does payment look like for a custom piece?
A 50% deposit confirms the order and reserves your build slot in the atelier. The balance is due before dispatch. We'll share a transparent quote with material and labour breakdown after the consultation.
What if something needs repair years from now?
Every piece carries a lifetime craftsmanship guarantee. Reupholstery, refinishing, and frame repair are handled in-house — a piece built today can be brought back to the workshop a decade from now and restored.
