Custom White Oak Bed with Remote Footboard Box


This bed is very similar to another we made a year and a half ago, that one had attached nightstands and was dark walnut. This is another example of the beauty of custom furniture! The wide footboard will hide a television system that can be raised with a remote control.


This model is fabricated in white oak and finished with a light stain, which highlights the natural beauty of the wood grain. The headboard is padded and covered with a light fabric, which is mirrored on the front of the footboard as well (something that was not done on the previous model).  The result is a light and airy aesthetic for a large, and heavy, piece of furniture which is sure to be a focal point in the room.


The area of the footboard that raises the television system is difficult to see, and we don't have photos of the unit in action as it is assembled on site.

Round Leather Ottoman


It's always fun to make smaller pieces, like this leather ottoman, because the details are so striking and noticeable, and as you probably know, we are all about the details.


We did a double top stitch on the vertical side panels, and single top stitch along the top and they come together beautifully with tone-on-tone thread on this rich, supple leather.


Just the piece to put your feet up on after a long day, or week, right? Netflix & chill all weekend - enjoy yours! Bon weekend!

Beautiful Ivory Jean Michel Frank Sofa


Sometimes we finish a piece, and it's so beautiful that we don't want it to leave! That was almost the case with this JMF sofa, upholstered in a gorgeous ivory silk velvet. So plush and so soft, you just want to fall into it and never get up!


If you have followed our blog for a while, you have surely seen a few JMF style sofas, they are one of our most popular and requested styles. And as is the case with all custom furniture, our clients can make changes that suit their taste, style or comfort level. In this case, we fabricated the sofa with wider arms than a classic JMF sofa.


The increased arm width adds to the heft of the sofa, but still remains in the style and comfort of Jean Michel Frank. It's difficult to see, but the walnut feet are finished with a dark stain - the sofa almost hovers! Gorgeous! What do you think?

Classic Custom Armchairs


Up today is a set of classic skirted armchairs with rolled arms. The fabric is a gorgeous subtle stripe, and we picked up one of the muted colors in the welt, which really makes it stand out.



One of our signature details is making sure the pattern is always running through; you'll never see mismatched lines or design in the transition from the back to the seat to the skirt - including the side view of the arms. This takes a little more time, fabric and know-how, but we feel it's worth it ;)
