Construction
Each order is individually bench made by a single upholsterer. We use neither an assembly line nor mass production methods, thereby allowing for more careful attention to the finish quality of each piece.
Every order is carefully inspected prior to packaging to ensure product integrity.
Frames
Our frames are hand crafted as a single unit using kiln dried solid hardwood. Frames are stapled, glued and corner blocked for optimum strength and rigidity. Our confidence in the materials and construction methods used enable us to feature a lifetime warranty to the original owner.
Seat Cushions
We carefully select the insert(s) we feel best suits each style, as a standard. We do have upgraded options available that may enhance your comfort needs.
Back Pillows
Our standard fill is a high-quality poly fiber designed for maximum resilience and comfort, encased in a channeled liner bag to prevent sagging. We also offer alternatives – various fill types, including 10/90 down blend or synthetic down alternative “Trillium”, depending on style of pillow and desired comfort level.
Exceptional Seat Comfort
After testing many different foam seat inserts, we found that a 2.5 medium density provides the most popular level of comfort, therefore standard seat cushions are 2.5 foam with a slick fiber wrap. Upgraded foam is available as an option.
For added luxury, various cushion wraps may be specified, such as feather blend and state-of-the-art synthetic “Trillium”.
Another option available is an individually wrapped coil inner-spring cushion wrapped in 3.0 foam. This comes with a lifetime warranty (to the original owner). You may also use a Trillium or feather blend wrap for the ultimate sit.
Sinuous Springs / Sytex Webbing
The vast majority of our styles use quality American-made sinuous springs. This provides long lasting, superior comfort. Some pieces use Sytex webbing, depending on the type of cushion needed for that style. Both adhere to our quality standards depending on each styles’ needs.
8-Way Hand-Tied
For traditionalists who prefer the old world excellence of seat springs, we offer “8-way hand-tied” springs as an option.
CertiPUR-US
Our seat foam is CertiPUR-US approved, meaning the foam is manufactured without ozone depleters, PBDE flame retardants, mercury lead or other heavy metals, formaldehyde or phthalates. They are very low in VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) emissions indoor air quality (less than 0.5 ppm).
