CONSTRUCTION

See below for a virtual tour Creative Custom Furnishings & Barrymore Furniture.

Barrymore sofas are the finest crafted in the industry, Meticulous hand-finishing, pattern-matching and stitching as well as bench-made construction ensures that every ‘Barrymore’ is of unequalled quality and will last for generations. Every detail has been refined and adjusted to ensure maximum comfort and durability. The following diagram illustrates the quality and integrity that goes into every Barrymore:

THE FRAME

We start with a 100% Canadian kiln-dried hardwood frame - maple. All key joints are double dowelled as well as glued and screwed. Corner blocks are used to disperse weight equally along the base and side. Try lifting a Barrymore sofa and you will see the difference.

SPRING FOUNDATION

For over 100 years Barrymore has used the hand tied coil spring method for creating stable sofa and chair decks, this method is very expensive to produce, new methodologies have developed in the craft of upholstery. We have utilized the option of hand ties sinuous springing for many years and achieved excellent success. This method enables Barrymore to create the same quality of tailored upholstery our clients expect while keeping the price reasonable. If clients want to have coil springs, we will provide this option at an extra charge.

THE ARMS

A layer of cotton felt carefully wrapped over the hardwood frame, then sturdy polyurethane foam for shape, then another layer of cotton felt - all combine to give a luxurious feel.

THE SEAT CUSHIONS

Barrymore has perfected its standard seating construction with an ideal combination of support, durability and softness. The core has an inner layer of high-density Qualex foam sandwiched between layers of Dacron wrap. The front edge is made There are also three other seating options check this under our “Seat and back Cushion selections”

THE BACK CUSHIONS

The back cushion assures tailored comfort with to combination of super soft foam wrapped in Dacron. Creating longevity and comfort, other options for back cushions include down quilted cushions.
