The Art of Storytelling with Character Pairs

When it comes to home decor, the most memorable spaces are the ones that tell a story. While a single statement piece draws the eye, pairing characters together creates an instant sense of warmth, personality, and charm.

Today we're celebrating the launch of our newest arrival - Avery - by sharing how to curate intentional character duos that turn walls into conversation starters.

Why Character Pairs Work

Decorating in pairs creates balance without needing rigid symmetry. When two wall mounts share a similar tone, scale, or mood, they naturally look like they belong in the same world. By pairing Avery with a classic fan-favorite Emerson the Pheasant, you establish a rich country manor, or woodland library, motif that feels curated and creative.

3 Tips for Styling Avery & Emerson

1. Find the Natural Anchor. Position Avery and Emerson together above a focal point that grounds the room. They look particularly striking above:

- A wooden entryway console table.

- A cozy reading nook bookcase

- A stone mantelpiece flanked by ambient wall sconces

2. Mind the Spacing. Give each character room to shine. We recommend hanging Avery and Emerson 6 to 8 inches apart - either side-by-side at slightly staggered heights or balanced across a central piece of art. This gives each piece breathing room while keeping them visually connected.

3. Layer in Warm Textures. Complete the story by surrounding your pair with tactile, cozy elements.

- Rich wood & leather: a stack of vintage hardcover books or a warm leather armchair underneath.

- Soft light: an illuminated candle jar (like our favorite scents from Illume) resting on a slate tray nearby.

- Botanicals: a small vase of eucalyptus or dried botanical stems to soften the lines around the mounts.

Bring Avery Home. Whether you're expanding your collection or hanging your very first wall mount, Avery adds a fresh layer of character and charm to any space.
