Every day Hickory's 'Made To Order Made To Last' tag line is proven as designers and sales associates challenge our workroom with one of a kind pieces. Every day drawings and sketches arrive with wishes of how existing pieces could be transformed for their clients. Every day we try to make the majority of these wishes come true. We would like to share some recent pieces with you that are on display in our High Point Showoom!
Shown in this image is the 1271-55 Townsend Wing Chair from the rear and facing it is a special construction where we stretched it to an overall 77 inches wide and then hand-tufted the back, seat, arms and wings. This custom settee proves our ability to create an entirely new style by modifying an existing item.
We needed a large square glass top cocktail table for the setting below but did not have the right style or size. We selected the Hutton M2M 20-inch Cocktail Table but make it 19-inches high, added a Starfire 1/2" thick glass top, finisedh it in Dark Walnut and apply the Antique Brass collars to the posts. This custom Hutton table looks very different from the standard construction of a wood panel top.
The Carved Bed from the French Collection has a wood headboard. We made it for the showroom with an upholstered headboard with nail head trim and painted it in Artisan Birch.
These are but a few of the special pieces made to order by our talented craftsmen in our Hickory, North Carolina workroom. We are honored to be trusted to make custom pieces and challenged to learn new ideas and skills. Why settle for standard when you can have it made?
The new custom wing settee from the James River Collection was my absolute favorite piece in your showroom!! There were so many items that I loved, but this one was the stand out piece!!!
Loved all the attention to details on the furniture pieces this High Point! Quality and setting the bar higher every market is what you do best!
