American Leather: Speed Meets Quality

It’s a brand we love, and we’ve carried their items since the day we opened our store, so it’s high time we featured American Leather. They’re one of our country’s premier seating manufacturers and have truly innovated and excelled in their field.

American Leather was founded in 1990 with the mission of preserving U.S. manufacturing jobs and delivering custom furniture quickly. The standard wait time for custom pieces used to be 4 months, and the founders decided that they would set a new standard and carve out a niche in the industry. Their plan worked so well that they grew to become one of the foremost seating manufacturers in the country, capable of delivering a custom piece of furniture in less than 1 month.

American Leather has earned its reputation for quality, speed, innovation and service. Beyond that, they’ve embraced sustainability, having founded the Sustainable Furniture Council. All of their leather dyes use water-based pigments, and their upholstery foam is plant-based and fully recyclable. Finally, due to their high-precision in-house manufacturing techniques, they create minimal wood, leather, and fabric scrap.

Add their strong reputation, values, quality, and stunning designs to the over 150 products and hundreds of fabric and leather choices for upholstery, and it’s easy to see why American Leather is so prominent.
