Keya Sofa

Turtle

The Keya sofa is crafted with a rounded silhouette, inspired by the gentle curves of a turtle’s shell, which symbolize the soft yet steadfast nature of this ancient creature. Its backrest arches subtly, offering enveloping comfort while also mirroring the earth-hugging form of the turtle. Generous cushions rest on a deep, solid wood base, available in finishes like walnut or cherry. Below the seat, hidden compartments echo the turtle’s ability to carry its home, offering practical storage that blends seamlessly into the design. The sofa’s structure is balanced, sturdy, and low to the ground, with carved legs that subtly mimic the shape of a turtle’s limbs, anchoring it in both strength and artistry.

The Keya Collection draws deeply from the Cherokee reverence for the turtle, “Keya,” a creature that symbolizes stability, endurance, and the journey through life. Cherokee stories often portray the turtle as a wise guardian, carrying the earth on its back and embodying the strength to endure life’s seasons. This collection channels that essence, creating furniture that is both a statement of resilience and a celebration of cultural heritage. Each piece is designed not only to endure but also to evoke a sense of harmony and rootedness in any space.
