American Leather
American Leather was founded in 1990 on one revolutionary idea: custom leather furniture could be made and shipped in three weeks or less. Founder/CEO Bob Duncan applied “just-in-time” manufacturing he admired from the Japanese car industry to the furniture industry. From a small four person shop, the company has grown into a thriving leader in the furniture industry, with over 130 different collections.
The factory, based just outside of Dallas, Texas, still makes furniture – now in leather and fabric – in just four weeks or less, a delivery standard that’s three times faster than the industry average. From the beginning, the factory was set up to manage mass customization through the latest technology and manufacturing systems, making American Leather the most automated leather furniture manufacturer in North America, if not the world.
Furniture built to last
Hard wood frames: We care about the long-lasting durability of our furniture. Many of our frames are made using hard wood that has been kiln dried for extra toughness. Craftsman laser cut the pieces into precise shapes that they forge together into a piece of furniture.
Unidirectional webbed suspension seating / High resiliency, high density foam: Comfort and long-term support is essential in every piece we make. We’ve chosen unidirectional webbed suspension seating as the best choice to pair with high resiliency, high density foam cushions. Studies show webbed suspension increases the life of these highest quality cushions. The combination creates a beautiful continuous design line and a buoyant firmness.
Eight-way hand tie suspension: Many of our pieces offer traditional eight-way hand-tied suspension as an option. Single coil springs are attached with links and then "hand tied" to each other and the frame to achieve superior elasticity in the seat. Best used with down cushions, this kind of luxury suspension is supported by reinforced double-doweled hardwood.
Cushioning: We create our cushions with a highly perfected recipe of foam or down. Each cushion mix is chosen specifically for the best comfort on each frame to create a welcoming softness. Down cushions tend to be softer and rounder, which tends to give a piece a more casual look. High resiliency, high density foam offers more structure and firmness. We also offer extra firm foam on many of our pieces.
