As I said yesterday, rustic furniture was definitely a popular choice at the Dallas and Las Vegas Markets. The rustic teak furniture caught buyers eyes throughout both shows. In our line of furniture, we create pieces that fit within different styles. This way you aren’t simply provided just western furniture or just lodge furniture.
Our furniture is a generous blend of rustic, western, transitional, rustic contemporary, and lodge pieces. The rustic look is popular among many different motifs. It simply has to be designed correctly to fit into particular settings. This is why at furniture shows, we attract various types of buyers. Our line is not limited to one style and that has been one of the main reasons people continuously look to us as their provider for all things rustic.
Today I am going to expand upon our latest collection, the Aynsley Collection. You may be able to tell by the name, that I have designed this collection. When I look over our line of rustic furniture I am constantly wondering how I can take it to the next level. I want to give our furniture something that will make it stand out in your store, client’s home, or commercial projects.
Of course the ruggedness of our rustic teak furniture line is one of the most fascinating aspects of our line. The furniture is made from recycled teak wood and includes antique farm implements in its construction. Therefore, the furniture’s construction, uniqueness, and handmade touches easily make it an eye-catcher to clients.
Well, what better way to bring out the ruggedness of our teak wood furniture than to juxtapose it with upholstery. I have stayed within the bounds of rustic by adding brown/white, black/white, and brindle cowhides to the backs of chairs, while the seat is covered in a rich brown leather.
With this in mind, I created some dining chairs and a rocking chair that combine the rustic qualities of the wood with the softness of natural cowhide. However, if you have projects or clients that are desiring a different look other than cowhide, we can do custom orders as well.
This has been a long-anticipated collection and I am glad to say that we are the first to develop this combination in our designs. I look forward to designing more upholstered furniture in the future and I have a few ideas for the upcoming markets this Summer.
