Three rooms,
one house.
Slate-blue and gilt, oxblood tufting, powder-blue velvet on fluted oak — three salons from the house, and the pieces that furnish them.

Albini grew out of the Jafari family's years on the workshop floor, learning how a piece goes together, and which small details decide whether it lasts and sits right in a room.
The Jafari family
Production heritage · A technical eye · An independent path
Mehdi and Ali Jafari now carry that experience into Albini, an independent house that brings specialist furniture making and architectural joinery under one roof.
For us, making starts well before the first cut. It begins with the brief and the specification, then moves through the choice of construction, close control of the details, and a hard look at the finished piece.

Murano
the blue salon
Louis XVI lines in carved ivory and gilt, dressed in slate-blue velvet with antique nailheads and dark veined marble.
Vareno
the crimson salon
Deep-button tufting in oxblood velvet over turned espresso legs, with red-veined marble and gilt rosettes.
Wesley
the garden room
Powder-blue velvet on fluted oak frames with travertine-toned stone tops — classic, and entirely at ease.

Where every
piece begins
- I
The measure
Every piece starts with proportion, set out with compass and rule before any timber is chosen.
- II
The line
Each profile is drawn by hand onto the raw board. The pencil decides where the saw will go.
- III
The turn
Legs and spindles are turned on the lathe, then finished by eye until each one matches its pair.
- IV
The finish
Upholstery, gilding and nail-head trim, fitted and checked piece by piece in our own workshop.
