The story
The Thing 1 Stool is part of the Konekt Collection, produced by Helena and Natasha Sultan in Pennsylvania. Wide and low in proportion, it pairs a circular warm brown velvet seat with a full skirt of natural horsehair fringe that descends from a polished brass band at the mid-section. The drum form is unambiguous, its shape prioritizing solidity and presence over height.
The velvet top is hand-stitched at the Konekt studio. The brass band that divides the stool provides both structural support and a material boundary, separating the refined upholstery above from the coarse natural fiber below. The horsehair hangs long and loose, giving the base a tactile density that anchors the piece visually.
The Thing series from the Konekt Collection is available in four stool styles, each distinguished by a specific upholstery color and material combination. Thing 1 pairs warm brown velvet with polished brass and natural horsehair. Each stool is customizable in shape and size and handmade in Pennsylvania.
About Konekt
Konekt is a sculptural furniture and lighting studio based in Pennsylvania, led by mother-daughter team Helena and Natasha Sultan. Their practice starts from material: its physical properties, its craft histories, and what happens when unexpected materials are brought together with traditional ones.
Helena and Natasha produce handcrafted furniture and lighting that pairs contrasting qualities in a single object. Strength and fragility, solidity and fluidity, refinement and play: these are not tensions the work resolves, but tensions the work is made of. Each piece carries that balance in its surface, its form, and its finish.
All work is made by hand in Pennsylvania and surrounding areas by local artisans. The studio's process is defined by materiality: textures are left in dialogue, contrasting finishes are set side by side, and the human touch remains legible in the finished object.
Konekt draws on both historical craft techniques and contemporary design references to produce work that holds a clear aesthetic position within American collectible furniture and handcrafted lighting. Helena and Natasha Sultan have built a body of work that refuses easy categorization: it is handcrafted but not nostalgic, contemporary but not fashionable. The studio's collection on Monde Singulier includes furniture and lighting objects that represent the full range of this approach, from seating and tables to statement lighting.
