Our team of Design Specialists are ready to answer any of your questions and help inspire you from frame to finish.

Our Catalpa Sofa is a French Moderne-inspired design, reimagined as a modern heirloom that is handsome from every angle, with an exposed wooden frame expertly coaxed into a curvaceous, architectural embrace, then clad in one of our Signature and Distinctive hardwood veneers. A tight upholstered seat back hugs the interior, providing support and a natural frame for removable hand-upholstered cushions. They sit on an impressively slender deck, designed with a double-bevel front detail that houses an 8-way hand-tied spring system.

Choose from a selection of Signature and Distinctive hardwoods with natural finishes. Click to view the Fabric Catalogue.
