As you look through the beautiful finished products depicted in our online showroom catalog, we don't want you to forget that beauty is more than skin deep, that there is more here than meets the eye.

Our products are different from others. They are the result of hard work, skilled craftsmanship, quality materials and expert construction. To demonstrate what this all means, we invite you to walk through the "Making of a Classic" with us in our factory.

Once you select a style and a fabric, the first step in making your selection come to life is getting your fabric to our cutting department. When the fabric you select is from our collection, we work to maintain enough inventory on hand to allow prompt production and shipment of your order. When it is one of your choosing from some other source, we carefully accept your shipment of fabric, inspect it and mark it for your order. If requested, after your pieces are cut, we will ship the remaining fabric to you according to your instructions.

Once in the cutting department, our cutters have years of experience and the expertise that comes with it, allowing you the confidence that they are handling your fabric with care and cutting it with precision to fit your piece. They evaluate your fabric and style to get the best application for beauty and durability.

After your fabric is cut, our sewing department works with superior equipment and experienced sewers to maintain the quality of your piece. Seams and pattern matches are checked as your piece goes through the sewing department, leaving for upholstery.

As the cutting and sewing department handles your piece, the frame shop begins the preparation and construction of your frame.

Our frames are constructed from the finest kiln-dried hardwoods available. The frames are engineered for strength and mass assembly, constructed from hardwoods and plywoods. All frames are built using double dowels, glue and screwed corner blocks for lifelong durability.

Completed frames are lined with a woven nylon that is designed to restore shape when pressure is removed, preserving the outer appearance of the product. The style ordered dictates the placement and types of springs, which are installed in the finished frame. We use a variety of spring systems in our products, depending on the style. They include eight-way hand tied coils, sinuous or no sag wire, Morley and Pirelli rubber webbing.

Finished covers are forwarded from the sewing department to the cushion department, where cushions are completed as the production process continues. We use top quality cushions, composed of polyurethane cores wrapped in polyester fiber and enclosed in a muslin ticking, to allow a luxurious appearance and seating comfort. Back pillows are filled with 100% polyester, giving them the appearance of down with better resiliency and no down-like odor. Optional cushion filled materials include Classic Down, Comfort Down and Crown Plus.

The final step in the construction, the upholstery process, is the most important to the look and feel of your completed piece. Finished frames, complete with their newly installed spring system, are matched to finished covers and cushions and they are all put together to form a finished chair, sofa or other upholstered piece.

Our upholsterers are experienced and skilled in taking the components and assembling them in a manner that ensures beauty, durability and comfort in your finished product. They take fabrics, padding, cushions, and tickling and put them together with care and craftsmanship.

Once the piece is completed, it goes through a thorough inspection and is cleaned up for shipment to you or your customer.

Throughout this process, your product is given the benefit of years of manufacturing experience, and research and development for new and better ways to make upholstery. We strive to make the best products possible and are proud of the work that we do.

With all that in mind, your satisfaction, and that of your client, is our ultimate goal. We welcome your comments and input into this process.

We appreciate and Thank You for your business and look forward to serving
your furniture needs in years to come.
