Why 100% Cotton Matters at Tensira – A Celebration of Natural Materials and African Craftsmanship

Tensira: 15 Years of Artisanal Expertise and Timeless Design

Tensira: 15 Years of Expertise and Timeless Design

This year, Tensira celebrates its 15th anniversary, marking the fusion of West African craftsmanship with Scandinavian and Parisian design. Our textiles, woven, dyed, and sewn in our certified workshops in Guinea, embody creativity, elegance, and durability.

Our Décor Tips with Tensira:

  • Choose the perfect mattress: To conceal a color, opt for a bold print (K.208, K.101 N). To enhance, go for subtle tones (K.107 BN, K.158, K.225).
  • Add cushions: For a 90x190 cm (36x75 inch) sofa, combine up to 4 cushions (50x50 cm / 20x20 inches), 2 cushions (40x60 cm / 16x24 inches), and a mini or bolster cushion for optimal comfort.

Thank you for being part of this beautiful journey—let’s celebrate 15 years of passion and craftsmanship together!
