Have you ever wondered how a GREAT quality piece of furniture is made?? Sherrill Furniture is hand made right here in the USA, piece by piece.....and sold here at Andrea's Designs............here is what you look for.

Frame ConstructionSherrill blends traditional hand craftsmanship with modern manufacturing methods to produce frames that are among the finest used in the upholstery business.

Back ConstructionBack construction varies depending on style.

A typical lawson style back has sinuous wire springs anchored to the frame and held together horizontally by coated wire to prevent turning.

Each frame is precisely cut and hand assembled.

Double dowels are utilized in all structural parts for sturdy, longlasting joints.

To complete construction and add stability to the frame, large precisely cut corner blocks are positioned at each corner where the greatest stress occurs using both glues and screws.

Sherrill mounts a solid interlace web bottom to each frame. Springs of various gauges and heights are securely attached to the full web bottom using clinch fasteners.

Eight-way Hand-tied Spring SystemThe eight-way hand-tied system and full web bottom is characteristic of high quality furniture and is traditionally the best known technique for ensuring long lasting comfort.

The individual spring coils are hand-tied and bound together in eight separate directions using polyester cording. The cording is then securely anchored to the frame.

Back ConstructionBack construction varies depending on style.

Polypropylene covering is used over the eight-way hand-tied springs and the sinuous wire springs backs as a protective shield and to provide a substantial base for various filling materials.

Marshall units are used when thickness of back and styling permits.

Filling MaterialOn most styles the standard filling material is urethane foam combined with polyester fibers and cotton felt.

Generous layers of polyester batting and cotton are used in conjunction with urethane foam to achieve just the right contour and comfort. Outside arms and backs are padded to assure a smoother surface and provide an extra measure of neatness.

CushionsAt Sherrill the standard cushion filling is U-D, a high density reinforced urethane core covered with a two ounce polyester fiber encased in a sewn ticking and is unconditionally guaranteed.

Also available is Super UD filling, a high resiliency urethane with 2 1/3 ounce fiber. Both cushions are encased in a sewn casing. Other cushion filling options are spring-down, comfort-down, and comfort-fiber. Sherrill offers loose pillow back option fiber-down and Shertrel. When cared for properly and rotated on a regular basis Sherrill cushions will provide years of trouble free comfort.
