Testimonials
What Defines a Luxury Italian Quality Sofa ?
The materials which are important to the quality of an upholstered sofa, may be
considered in four categories: the frame (usually wooden) on which the
upholstery is to be constructed; the spring system; the cushioning or padding;
and the final leather covering. |
| |
The Frame
Most wood employed in luxury upholstered sofas is Kiln-dried.
In this process, the wood is heated in an drying oven to remove excess sap and
moisture (and reduce its tendency for absorbing any moisture in the future),
which can cause frames to warp, swell, shrink or change shape, or to succumb to
rot or mildew, during their life.
The wood for a piece of upholstered sofa must be assembled into a sturdy frame.
Generally, the more rigid the frame the better, because a loose frame can crack
or fail, and several craftsman processes can be used to create a good, strong
frame. A variety of woods are used for joining, blocking and doweling and
sometimes several techniques are used by our master craftsman.
Spring System
|
 |
Once the frame is constructed, a spring system is installed to support the
seating area. We employ two main types of support systems: Sinuous springs and
eight-way hand tied springs. When the spring system is finished with a top layer
of padding, it is commonly called the "seat deck".Sinuous springs are
heavy-gauge steel springs that have been heat formed into continuous "S" shapes.
They are cut into lengths and affixed to the frame.Eight-way hand-tied springs
have a wide range of movement providing a very even and individual "sit",
because they move up and down and side to side. In the construction of these
systems, our craftsman individually ties heavy gauge coils from front to back,
side to side and diagonally (eight ways) to provide the highest level of
quality, comfort and durability. This process costs more because it is time
consuming and can only be done by hand.
Cushions & Padding - The Comfort Factor
Once a piece of upholstered sofa has its frame and springs, the next components
are the cushions and padding. Seat cushions sit on top of the spring system and
seat deck. Back pillows, if present, rest against the back and arms of the
piece.
Most of our cushions are made of a high-density foam core that is then wrapped
with either soft polyester, and down, in tern giving you a anti sagging system .
Dacron adds resilience so that pillows and seats keep their shape, while the
wraps form a soft envelope. Cushions and pillows are sewn into cotton cases to
ensure smooth upholstering.
The Leather Factor
Leather is a durable and easy-care natural material that softens and improves
with time. To create quality leather, full-grain hides are tanned, processed and
dyed to give a certain colour or look. Tanning refers to the process in which
salts are used to cure the hide and to stabilize its shape. Dyeing refers to
infusing the hide with different colour dyes.
Aniline dyeing is a high quality process that imparts colour but does not
disguise the natural character of the hide. Some leathers are further treated
with a pattern, texture, or polish.
