It's been a good week for upholstery at Langmore House.
We're big proponents of giving new life to old pieces of furniture and this is a classic example. This Ethan Allen sofa was 20 years old and looking pretty tired, but it had great bones -- a solid hardwood frame and ridiculously heavy and sturdy spring bed.
We convinced our reluctant client that it was worth saving, and the payoff is a gorgeous piece of American-made furniture that's far better quality than anything you can find in furniture stores today. Here is the finished product at the upholstery shop, ready for delivery to our client's new home.
Brand new, a sofa of this quality would easily run upwards of $4k. This was done for less than half that number, and now it's ready for another 20 years.
Earlier this week we also delivered a skirted bench fresh from one of our custom furniture makers in North Carolina. It's the finishing touch on another client's bedroom refresh, and upholstered in a sweet Schumacher print to match her custom bedding. Check out the seaming on the seat and perfect pattern match! We were sad to see this piece leave the office, but it was a nice reminder that it's the little details that make all the difference.
