Abstract
We construct bona fide one- and two-center supersymmetric solutions to \( \mathcal{N}=2 \), d = 4 supergravity coupled to SU(2) non-Abelian vector multiplets. The solutions describe black holes and global monopoles alone or in equilibrium with each other and exhibit non-Abelian hairs of different kinds.
