Furniture Workshop at J.H. Conklin & Co

Fabric, padding, springs and framework - on upholstered furniture these basic elements combine to provide a variety of visual and tactile appeal as well as functional comfort.  A nicely textured upholstery fabric with an attractive pattern and tasteful color is merely the outer layer.  A tight deck, robust spring work, smooth padding, resilient foam, and lofty  stuffing all contribute to comfortable and durable upholstery.

You have access to a wide selection of fabrics and treatments, providing more flexibility than most new furniture showrooms.  We have offerings from Kravet Fabrics, Robert Allen, Duralee, Fabricut, Greenhouse,  Trend, Barrow, United ... and others.

We can bring pre-selected sample fabric books to your home so you can pick your upholstery fabric in the setting for which they are intended - and at your leisure.   You are also welcome to provide your own fabric - we will help you determine the yardage.

You can also browse our fabric resources online - and save some time by letting us help you select a fabric for your furniture:

Upholstered items are often embedded in a setting with many other furnishings and accessories. It can be difficult to replace a single piece without revising the entire setting. Upholstered items with outmoded or worn textiles can be easily re-tasked into a new theme with alternate fabric and treatments. Our workroom regularly upholsters antiques as well as more modern furniture - from foundation spring-work and padding through to special cushions and final treatments
