What is Fine Furniture?


What is fine furniture? Why spend the money when cheaper imitations may exist? Because fine furniture is more than something on which to sit, place your dishes or store your clothing.  Something more than a stand for your television.  Fine furniture is an investment into the beauty of your home, a lasting statement that reflects your style and personal taste.

Furniture should not be something we view as a disposable household item, something to be thrown out after it breaks down after a short period of time.  When we invest in fine furniture, we are choosing to commit to quality and craftsmanship as well as durable belongings. Finishes are layered, buffed and polished until wood shines and feels as smooth as glass.

Fine furniture endures.  When joinery techniques are used to build strength, dovetail details hand cut to provide symmetry and proper dimensions, pieces are created that last and stand up to normal wear and tear. Strong, well-built furniture lasts and builds memories that can be passed down to future generations, allowing children and grandchildren to enjoy and cherish something that was part of a home that meant so much to them.  

Fine furniture is about quality.  Craftsmanship.  Attention to detail and the best materials on the market.   Artisan skills are honed over years of training.    These are all ideas that are often overlooked in our ever-changing society.  At Lenoir Empire Furniture, we strive to help you maintain these values and obtain the most beautiful, high-quality furniture at an affordable price.

Fine furniture is a method to portray the vision we have for our homes, where we spend the majority of our time.  Beautiful, hand-crafted pieces can serve as the centerpiece for a room, a conversation piece.  We hope that you will stop by to visit us, whether via a visit to our showroom or our newly updated website www.lenoirempirefurniture.com.
