Furniture Specialties — Local services in Asheville

After thoroughly interviewing all possible professional upholsters from Asheville, NC to Hickory, NC, we decided upon the folks at Furniture Specialties. We weren't disappointed! They offered special concierge services every step of the way in completing two specifically difficult and large re-upholster projects for us within a few weeks, unlike others we could only pseudo-promise 3-4 month turn-around.

First, a large Executive completely tufted leather desk chair was meticulously rebuilt and finely upholstered with the finest distressed leather available, complete with new expertly applied nail-heads. The results were absolutely breathtaking. Nobody comes close in even replicating and making this chair any more. In fact, we first bought a new "wanna-be" chair from Hancock & Moore Manufactures for more than four thousand dollars (these are the historic folks that build the chairs for the U.S. Supreme court justices and more), but sadly returned it because it just didn't meet our standards of expectations. Quite instructively, it took the skill and loving care from Furniture Specialities to bring our classic 35 year old solid hickory-framed Executive chair to life again, unfortunately making Hancock & Moore's chair look like a cheap reproduction.

Furniture Specialities also reupholstered a leather Media Sectional making it look and function like new.... all the while saving thousands of dollars for jobs that will likely last another 20 years.... The bottom line: These folks have the skills, the know-how, the care and talent to make your furniture dreams come true! Never skimping on quality of design nor old-world craftsmanship, Furniture Specialties consistently ensured the best possible price while respecting your time constraints, keeping the entirety of all our aspirations within budget. Hereafter, I will only deal with Furniture Specialties --- Nobody else!. Dr. G. Young,...

We first met Furniture Specialties when they came to out home to service a piece of furniture that we had purchased elsewhere. They did a first class job. When it came time to have the seats for our dining room redone, we asked several sources where to go, All pointed to Furniture Specialties. We took 8 seats to them, they quoted a fair price and then did a fantastic job. We will not hesitate to recommend them to friends and family and they will certainly be our first choice when looking for custom furniture and repairs on things we already own. They showed us their facility and some of their capabilities, all very impressive. They are true craftpersons. Bryan, April and all of their staff are friendly, gracious and...

We were in the market for a nice recliner. I stopped by on the way home late on a Friday evening and met Hannah who showed me around and explained my options. I was impressed with her and as a result my wife returned the next day, a Saturday of a holiday weekend. Hannah was off, but Bryan, the owner worked with my wife to find her "dream chair". He actually delivered it that afternoon! Now, the problem is that my wife likes the chair so much I can't seem to get her out of it. The quality is fantastic, the warranty is fantastic and both Bryan and Hannah were wonderful to work with. I am impressed!!!! The next time we need something in the way of home furnishings or reupholstering, we...
