Our quality features.
Built with integrity to last... and look good doing it.
“BENCH-MADE” is a term that signifies products that are handcrafted, not mass-produced. Although the term may be out of style, it perfectly describes our approach to building furniture.
Even though you can’t see it, we put just as much care into the interior of our furniture as we do the outside.
Depending on the design of an individual style, our frames are made of responsibly forested Pacific Northwest alder hardwood or of Forest Stewardship Council (FCS) certified hardwood plywood. The hardwood plywood frames we produce also meet the strict standards of the California Air Resources Board (CARB). We create the frames in our own mill and reinforce our frames to ensure proper tailoring of the selected covering. And, while others may not use corner blocks at all, we use many in each sofa to enhance its strength. We use tempered steel sinuous springs for both the back and seating suspension to properly support the back and seat cushions, distribute seating support evenly and provide excellent comfort. Sinuous spring suspension is superior to webbing suspension, as the springs have tremendous longevity and webbing can stretch and lose resiliency. Our upholstery padding and cushions are made of the best materials, providing both comfort and resiliency. The cushions are sewn with bonded nylon threads that are strong and flexible and held neatly in place on the decking with velcro lining material. And our outside panels are padded to add softness and to prevent the leather or fabric from sagging.
