Our standard

“Quality is priceless.”Attention to every line, seam, and finish

What we do

Work that respects the furniture.

Custom upholstery

Tailored upholstery for chairs, sofas, benches, and one-of-a-kind furniture, with proportion and finish considered from every angle.

Reupholstery & restoration

A thoughtful return to form for existing pieces, from the foundation and cushioning to the final fabric or leather.

Upholstery for the trade

Fine upholstery work for designers and furniture makers who need a skilled Los Angeles workshop for special pieces.

Decorative detailing

Tufting, nailhead trim, channel work, welt, and carefully finished edges for traditional and tailored silhouettes.

Made by hand

The difference is in the details.

Fine upholstery is not production work. It is an exacting craft: understanding the frame, shaping the seat, matching the pattern, and knowing when a detail is truly finished.

01 Deep button and French tufting
02 Hand-applied nailhead trim
03 Pattern matching and tailored seams
04 Leather, fabric, and specialty materials
