Walnut, cane, brass, show-wood

1950s silhouettes. Contract-grade construction.

The walnut-and-cane look everyone wants was never engineered for two hundred sits a day — so we rebuild it from the inside out, in Los Angeles, to commercial specification. Most mid-century furniture on the market is either fragile vintage or a residential reproduction that fails within a year of public use. We build the silhouette designers actually want — walnut and cane, tapered legs, low-slung lounges, exposed show-wood — on hardwood frames with contract-grade fills that meet California TB 117-2013, sized to your space rather than a catalog page. Send a reference image of the piece you have in mind and we engineer a commercial-duty version of it, with CAD shop drawings for approval before anything is cut.

Finished by hand in Los Angeles and shipped nationwide — statement lounge chairs for boutique hotels, cafe seating, and full amenity-floor packages.

The making of a piece

How a silhouette becomes a contract piece.

01Chapter one

Your plan, in any form.

A floor plan, a CAD file, a reference photo, or a sketch with measurements. Mark the quantities, the fabric or finish you have in mind, and the date you need it. That is enough for us to price it.

Shop drawings. Nothing is cut until you sign.

Your plan becomes CAD shop drawings, included with your order: every dimension, profile and finish. You mark them up, we revise, you approve. Sending your own fabric or leather? The yardage is confirmed right on the drawings, before you order a roll.

Questions buyers ask first

Something not covered here? Call (310) 817-5489 and ask us directly.

Is your mid-century furniture vintage or new?

New, and built to order. Every piece is cut, sewn, and finished in our Los Angeles factory — mid-century silhouettes on contract-grade construction, not restored vintage and not imported reproductions.

Can mid-century furniture hold up in commercial spaces?

Ours can — that is the point of the program. Hardwood frames, commercial-duty joinery, and foams that meet California TB 117-2013, under the walnut-and-cane look. Residential reproductions are the ones that fail in public use.

Can you build from a reference photo of a mid-century piece?

Yes. Send the photo with your dimensions and we engineer a commercial-grade version — our own construction, your size and materials — with CAD shop drawings for approval before anything is cut.

Can you match a specific wood tone, like walnut or teak?

Yes. Staining and finishing happen in-house, matched to your sample — walnut, teak tones, oak, or a custom match.

Do you accept COM fabric on mid-century pieces?

Yes — bouclé, tweed, leather, or anything else from any mill. We confirm yardage on the shop drawings before you order.

Is there a minimum order?

No. One statement chair for a lobby or a full amenity-floor package — same shop, same standard.

What is the lead time?

Typically 4–10 weeks from approved shop drawings or fabric receipt, plus freight from Los Angeles.

Where can I see the mid-century pieces?

The curated edit — Seattle Lounge Chair, Tower Chair, Kane Chair, and more — is on the products page under the Mid-Century filter, each with a full spec sheet and tearsheet.
