Special orderIf it is not on the floor, we can usually still get it
We are a dealer for the lines we carry. Between them there are more than twenty thousand pieces you can order through us, which is a great deal more than fits in one building.
The showroom is a sample
Most people assume a furniture store can only sell what is standing in it. What is on our floor is one fabric, one finish and one size out of everything that piece comes in.
Same sofa in a different weave. The table two sizes up. The finish that actually matches the floors you already have. That is the part worth knowing about before you settle for near enough.
Four steps, no surprises
-
Tell us what you are after
Call, or better, come in and look at what is on the floor. Seeing a frame and feeling a fabric in person is most of the decision, even when the piece you end up ordering is a different one.
-
We go and find it
We work through the catalogues for the lines we carry and come back with the real options: the sizes that piece is made in, the finishes it comes in and the fabrics you can put on it.
-
You approve it before anything is ordered
Nothing gets ordered until you have seen exactly what you are getting and we have given you the honest timeline on it. If we think it will be slow, we will say so.
-
It ships in, and we call you
Most of what we order comes out of a stocked warehouse rather than being built from scratch, which is why it is usually about two to four weeks rather than a couple of months.
Who we buy from
All three have catalogues you can browse yourself. If you find something you like, write down the model number and bring it to us.
Jofran
Dining is where they are strongest: tables, chairs, benches and stools, along with storage and occasional pieces. Their catalogue is public and carries no prices, so it is a genuinely useful place to browse.
Browse JofranInternational Furniture Direct
Solid wood, and a lot of it. Bedroom, dining, entertainment and occasional pieces. They build in Mexico and ship from warehouses here in the States, which is part of why the lead time is what it is.
Browse IFDAmerican Wholesale Furniture
A wholesaler we buy through rather than a manufacturer. Their catalogue runs wide across bedroom, dining, upholstery and mattresses. There are no prices on it, and no way to buy from them directly, so bring us the model number.

Or just describe the room. Either one works.
What we will and will not tell you
A special order is a real commitment, so here is the honest shape of it before you make one.
- We are a dealer, not a manufacturer. The lines we carry are the lines we can order. If a piece you have seen elsewhere is not one of ours, we will tell you rather than talk you into something else.
- We will not promise a date we cannot hold. About two to four weeks is what we usually see. Freight and weather do what they do, and you will hear from us either way.
- The warranty is the manufacturer's, not ours. If something is wrong with a piece, we will help you make the claim, but the cover comes from whoever built it.
- We do not take money on this website. There is no cart here and never will be. Deposits happen at the counter, in person.
- Twenty thousand pieces is what you can order, not what is in the building. That number is the breadth of the catalogues, and we would rather say so plainly than let it sound like a warehouse.
