Regardless of fashion trends, the big thing in furniture is making sure the pieces are comfortable, fit the scale of the space, are comfortable, match the look you’re going for, are comfortable, fit the function and are comfortable. (Notice a recurring theme here?) We deal with companies who rightfully take pride in their longevity and success, and the craftsmanship of furniture built to last. From reinforced sofa frames constructed of sturdy kiln dried hardwoods, to finely crafted dining room furnishings, tables and chairs. A few of your options.... Wood Most quality-built furniture is a combination of solid hardwoods and today’s sophisticated, high-quality veneers. Solid woods each have their own unique colors, grains, patterns and density, while modern veneer techniques provide some of the most beautifully matched designs in furniture -- parquet, diamond, butterfly, herringbone, checker board and bookmatch patterns. Further adding to its warmth and appeal, wood furniture goes through a labor intensive finishing process. In fine furnitures, many of the finishing steps are repeated several times for additional depth and luster. Leather Leather furniture is perfect for interior design. Its solid, natural colors have a “calming” effect on more dramatic fabric patterns, making it the perfect complement for patterned drapery, chairs and Persian rugs. Leather is durable, adapts well to the air temperature around it and unlike some unholstery and vinyl, it “breathes.” With its tight, strong fibers, leather is also allergy-friendly, preventing the penetration of dust, mites or animal hair. So what’s the difference between an $800 leather sofa and a $5,000 leather sofa? Much depends on grade, thickness and the tanning of the leather, and whether it’s pigmented or pure, top grain, split, embossed or full grain. From buttery-soft Aniline to soft, brushed Nubuck, Protected and Pull-up leathers, we can help you choose the best quality leather sofas and chairs for your budget. Fabrics Fabrics offer an almost endless choice of furniture colors and patterns. The added beauty of custom fabrics is that they allow you to recover your existing pieces to match a new sofa or chair, and they can also be matched with draperies! A pretty or handsome sofa isn’t enough. Give Becki a call and she’ll make sure everything comes together to create the best, most affordable and, yes, the most comfortable sofas and chairs for you! |
