Full description and care
Kabara 28mm N9 Decorative Upholstery Nails, 60pcs
The Kabara 28mm N9 Upholstery Nails are oversized decorative furniture studs made for upholstery projects where the nail itself is intended to become a prominent part of the finished design.
It has an impressive 28mm diameter head and supplied in packs of 60, these are the largest upholstery nails in the Kabara range.
Rather than producing the finer continuous stud line associated with smaller upholstery tacks, the N9 creates a much bolder decorative feature. This makes it particularly suitable for statement furniture, large headboards and bespoke upholstered pieces where the furniture studding needs real visual presence.
Large 28mm Upholstery Nails for Statement Furniture
The 28mm head makes these decorative upholstery nails especially effective on larger pieces of furniture where smaller studs may simply disappear into the overall design.
Typical applications include:
- Large upholstered headboards
- Statement sofas and armchairs
- Footstools and ottomans
- Leather furniture
- Upholstered wall panels
- Feature chairs
- Bespoke furniture
- Traditional and upholstery
- Furniture restoration and reupholstery
They can be used to create bold borders, widely spaced decorative details or individual feature points depending on the furniture design.
Oversized Furniture Studs for Headboards and Upholstered Panels
Large headboards and upholstered wall panels are particularly well suited to oversized furniture studs.
A smaller decorative nail may require very close spacing to make an impact across a large upholstered surface. The 28mm N9 provides a much stronger visual detail, allowing the furniture nail itself to become an intentional design feature.
These large decorative studs can be used around outer borders, along upholstered frames or as part of a repeating decorative pattern.
The result is a stronger, more finish than would normally be achieved with conventional 9.5mm, 10.5mm or 11mm upholstery nails.
Choice of Decorative Furniture Nail Finishes
The Kabara 28mm N9 upholstery nails are available in:
Black & Gold, Black Nickel, Brass, Brown & Gold, French and Nickel.
This choice allows the decorative furniture studs to complement a wide variety of upholstery materials and furniture styles.
Brass, Brown & Gold and French work particularly well with traditional furniture, leather and classic upholstery fabrics.
Black & Gold and Black Nickel can create a stronger contrasting feature, while Nickel provides a cleaner metallic finish suitable for both traditional and pieces.
Because the 28mm head is so visible, the choice of finish becomes an important part of the overall furniture design.
Decorative Upholstery Nails for Leather, Fabric and Vinyl Furniture
These oversized upholstery nails can be used alongside a wide range of furniture covering materials, including:
- Upholstery fabric
- Leather
- Faux leather
- Vinyl
- Decorative woven fabrics
- Traditional furniture coverings
The large head provides a particularly striking contrast when used against leather or plain upholstery materials where the decorative nail can be clearly seen.
For customers looking for other large decorative nail sizes, see the Loose Upholstery Nails collection.
Loose Upholstery Nails for Individual Positioning
The N9 is supplied as an individual loose upholstery nail, allowing every stud to be positioned separately.
This gives the upholsterer complete control over the spacing and pattern of the finished decorative detail.
Unlike smaller furniture nails, a 28mm stud does not necessarily need to be installed in a tightly packed continuous row. The larger head also lends itself to wider spacing and more creative decorative layouts.
This makes the N9 useful for bespoke upholstery projects where the studding is intended to look deliberately bold rather than simply form a conventional furniture trim.
Fitting Large Decorative Furniture Studs
Extra care should be taken when positioning large upholstery nails because any variation in alignment is easier to see with a 28mm head.
Mark the intended positions before fitting and check the overall layout across the furniture rather than relying only on the position of the previous nail.
For final fitting, use a Kabara Nylon Tip Hammer. The nylon striking surface helps reduce the risk of marking or damaging the visible decorative head compared with striking the nail directly with a conventional hard steel hammer.
Drive each decorative upholstery nail carefully and squarely into suitable, sound furniture-frame timber.
Alternative Large Decorative Upholstery Nails
If a 28mm furniture stud is larger than required, the Kabara 20mm N5 Upholstery Nails, 175pcs provide a 20mm alternative with a wider choice of finishes.
The Heico 19mm L19 Upholstery Nails, 250pcs offer another large round furniture stud option.
For customers wanting something visually distinctive rather than simply larger, the Kabara 18mm Square Pyramid Upholstery Nails, 125pcs provide a bold geometric alternative.

Oversized Decorative Furniture Nails for Upholstery and Restoration
The Kabara N9 is made for projects where ordinary furniture studs simply do not provide enough visual impact.
Its large 28mm head makes it particularly effective on statement headboards, sofas, chairs, upholstered panels and bespoke furniture where decorative studding needs to be clearly visible.
Suitable for professional upholsterers, furniture manufacturers, restorers and bespoke furniture makers, these oversized upholstery nails provide an effective way to turn a traditional furniture fixing into a prominent decorative feature.
