Quality Features

Case Goods

Each of our case goods has its own character. Yet all of them combine easily so you can achieve a truly personal result. Our furniture is distinguished by premium construction and thoughtful design. Fine craftsmanship, select materials, and careful attention to details ensure the uniqueness and longevity of each piece.

 
   

Quality and Craftsmanship

To bring you furniture guaranteed to serve you for years to come, we emphasize high-quality materials, trusted craftsmanship, and attention to detail. Our case goods feature kiln-dried hardwood frames with traditional mortise-and-tenon joinery and unique cathedral-cut veneers. Solid wood drawer boxes boast full side and back panels, English and French dovetailing, and finished interiors.

 

Distinctive Materials and Techniques

We combine time-honored techniques and up-to-the-minute technologies to create our collections' most distinctive features. Among them you'll find Asian-inspired wire inlay, laser-cut fretwork, and embellishments that have been stenciled, carved, or painted by hand. Exotic woods are offset with jewelry-inspired hardware, and natural materials such as granite, lava stone, and mother-of-pearl lend their textures and radiance to your room's decorating scheme.

   
 
   

Thoughtful Details

We've made sure that every case is a perfect blend of style and function. To that end, we've included: paper drawer liners, silver-cloth liners, and jewelry trays in cabinets and bureaus; glass shelves, plate grooves, and interior lights for displaying china; and specialty storage for wine bottles, stemware, and trays. Our home office pieces function as computer workstations, and media units provide 120-volt outlets and removable back panels to accommodate electronics.

 

Unexpected Color

The inventive use of color and ornament lends spirit to our collections and gives you an easy way to add a dynamic spark to your decorating palette. In addition to traditional browns, you'll find furniture finished in light-toned paints and shades of deep black. Some of our cabinets feature cheerfully painted interiors, hand-painted botanical designs, and chinoiserie-style detailing.

Upholstery

Every piece of upholstery reflects our commitment to delivering superior quality for superior value. That's why we take special care with every element that goes into our upholstery, from how it's made, to how it looks, to how it works for your lifestyle. You can be sure that you will take home a style that you love, with craftsmanship that will last for years.

 
   
Quality and Construction

All of our upholstered furniture features reinforced, engineered hardwood framing and sinuous, carbon-tempered steel-spring construction to prevent sagging and squeaking. A limited lifetime warranty guarantees frames and springs. For an especially comfortable seat, luxurious down-, feather-, and fiber-blend cushions with high-resiliency polyfoam cores and down-proof ticking covers come standard throughout the assortment.
  Design and Style

To help you find just the right upholstered piece for your lifestyle, our assortment reflects three distinct design sensibilities: modern, casual, and formal. For a look that's sleek and simple, we have pieces with wood stretcher bases, track arms, and tight backs. To create a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, we have pieces with side seats, pillowbacks, and plump rolled arms. Or, to set a sophisticated tone, we have pieces with tufted backs, specialty trims, and turned wood detailing.
   
 
   
Fabrics and Accents

Every item is available in a specially selected cover, as well as in more than 140 other exclusive fabrics. From low-maintenance microfibers to sumptuous velvets to crisp stripes, all of our fabrics are chosen for beauty, durability, and comfort. You can also choose to have a piece covered in your own fabric. Accent pillows included with each sofa come in the same fabric as the frame, or in a coordinating fabric to add dimension and textures.
  Coordinating Finishes

To help make creating a complete look easy, all of our upholstery coordinates with our case goods, sharing the same wood finishes (from Walnut to Espresso to Antiqued Cherry), so that legs on our sofas, chairs, love seats, and ottomans coordinate perfectly with our tables, armoires, and beds.
