Upholstery Construction
Exceptional Durability
Our fully upholstered frames are made from a combination of kiln-dried solids and engineered hardwood laminates. To achieve maximum strength, joints are either interlocking or are double-doweled, corner blocked, and glued.
Engineered for Comfort
Stickley frames employ one of two support systems. The noise-proof, rust-proof steel-webbing base is a spring in itself and will not sag. In the solid-bottom base, two layers of high-grade polypropylene webbing are reinforced with steel bands to support our eight-way hand-tied springs. Both systems will provide years of service and durability.
8-Way Hand-Knotted Springs
Stickley uses only the finest quality, rust-resistant high carbon steel coil springs. These are eight-way hand-knotted with the strongest polyester twine to create a cushion with even support and maximum comfort; extra ties across the front provide even more security. Individual coil spring Marshall units are used in most tight-back designs and provide exceptional support and durability.
Thoughtful Cushion Details
The majority of our separate seat cushions and back pillows are zippered, and most cushion and pillow fillings are enclosed in a luxurious down-proof ticking. Buttons are omitted from cushions and pillows with down content to prevent seepage.
Precise Patterns
Fabrics are individually cut to ensure careful center- or flow-matching of each pattern. A sofa may have as many as 80 individual pieces of fabric that need to be cut to pattern with exceptional accuracy.
