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

Named for the luxury it invites, the Napper is engineered for unparalleled comfort and supple, dynamic support. Its hand-sewn cushions nest atop a prismatic, elegantly exposed hardwood frame, meticulously hand-crafted with characteristic joinery by master woodworkers.

A celebration of wood joinery, the Napper’s exposed frame is constructed from solid hardwood featuring prismatic bevels and hooved feet, every inch of which is shaped, sanded, buffed, and finished by hand at a master multi-generational, family-owned woodworking shop in Pennsylvania. For supreme comfort, its seat is made of a single cushion–perfected in its foam core and down feather support–spanning the length of the sofa that lays atop leather webbing, which work in tandem to form to your body over time. The back and sides of its architectural frame remain open, offering a 360-degree-view of the unerring hand-upholstery’s picture-frame stitching, akin to an enlarged patchwork.
