Frame
The wooden
frame on this collection is composed of
beech wood and ash. These woods are selected
at source and seasoned for a minimum of 2
years to ensure long term durability. All of
the corners and load bearing areas of our
frames are additionally secured with heavy
duty corner blocks to add to the strength
and durability of the frame. Upon completion
of the construction of the frame, we encase
the entire structure. This process ensures
the strength and integrity of the frame. We
the put one inch of foam around the frame
before upholstery so that when you touch the
sides and backs you notice a firm/soft
sensation not four inches of play between
the leather and frame as you would find with
most of our competitors.
Suspension
Unit
We
incorporate in our suspension unit; heavy
duty nine gauge sinuous spring steel. These
“S: shaped steel springs are fastened to the
top of the front rail and run from the front
to the back of the piece two inches apart.
These springs are attached to the frame
using heavy duty clips. Two firm rods are
used to hold the springs in place which
offers additional durability to the sitting
area, both on the front and the back of each
individual seat. We also attach a canvas
barrier between the foam and the steel
springs. This does not allow the foam to
wear. We use five steel springs per seat to
ensure the strength, comfort and durability
of the foam cushion core. We will continue
to use heavy duty European elastic webbing
to support the back cushions. This material
will hold 720 pounds of pressure per square
inch. In addition: we use two solid wooden
stretchers that run front to back to
stabilize and strengthen the frame against
the tension of the steel sinuous springs.
This adds to the strength of the frame
itself.
Leather:
2520 Choca
The leather
on this collection is semi aniline. This
means that the leather is colored thru and
thru and does possess a light protective
coat of polyurethane on the surface of the
leather. This gives the consumer versatility
in wear and use; most common household
stains can be easily cleaned with a damp
cloth and mild soap if addressed within
minutes of the spill, spot or stain. You
will notice some color variation and grain
variations between each piece and sometimes
within the same piece. These are natural
characteristics and should not be considered
unusual. This leather is buttery soft and
will work in any décor or color scheme at
home.
Cushions and
Seating
The seat
cushions are composed of polyurethane foam
cores with a high quality Dacron topper for
comfort. You will find the density of the
seat cushions will vary from 2.0 to 2.3.
This is a unit of measurement of the number
of porous holes in the cushion. The standard
quality in our industry would be 1.8. The
back cushions are composed of Dacron fiber
which is blown by computer into vertically
and horizontally channeled bags. This
ensures that the proper amount of Dacron is
blown in the same every time.
