in Awe in Atlanta!

Our friend, Suzanne Kasler, has been invited to participate in a "Be Inspired" event at the Atlanta Mart. She was invited to put together a room at the Atlanta Mart's upcoming market event. Shown is the 1543-70 Choate Dining Table in Antique Ivory with custom striping to match our Weathered Swedish Gray paint color. Then the table was lacquered over. Also shown is the 1505-24 Nanette Chair with slipcover, 1585-70 Antoinette Side Table, 1515-30 Frederica Bench, 1516-23 Alexandra Side Chair, 1552-02 Amsterdam Side Chair along with a few antiques from Suzanne's personal collection.

Suzanne Kasler's collection by Hickory Chair celebrated its first anniversary at the spring 2009 market. We were able to make a frequent wish come true at this market! The Leigh sectional was originally designed to be armless. Our HCC University alumni have wished that she would design an arm version for customers that prefer arms. Suzanne was happy to honor the request by designing this sleek track arm for not only the chair shown but all of the other pieces that are part of the Leigh sectional group. In addition, we have added many more companion pieces to the grouping so that you now have the flexibility to create just the perfect grouping for your room!

Special Construction Requests

Every day we receive requests for personalization through Special Construction requests. I continue to be made proud by the many incredible custom requests that we are able to accomodate! As I was giving a tour yesterday for our HCC University Supplier group and several community college executives that focus on supporting local business and industry, we stopped at a bulletin board by the area where we make the one of a kind Milo tables. On this bulletin board were several pictures of chests where the customer had asked for different fronts than the piece had been designed to have for COHTM hardware.

These types of personalization requests are embraced by Hickory Chair craftsman. They look forward to these one of a kind requests. With great pride they think about each special request to visualize how it would look and then to determine how they can make that piece the way the customer wants it. When you order a Hickory Chair piece, you should know that "I have it MADE."

They MADE It For Me!

"I wish that you could make the Piedmont Dining Table counter height for me" asked Suzanne Kasler. The craftsmen at Hickory Chair received the request and within 48 hours responded YES!

Shown in the Hickory Chair showroom at the April 2009 market is the personalized 114" Piedmont Dining Table with a Scrubbed Ash top and the base in Birch painted finish made counter height! She chose a set of the Amsterdam Counter Stools to accompany this one of a kind table!

Literally every day we receive requests for special constructions to adapt our timeless pieces for clients homes. Our employees have great pride in their abilty to make one of a kind pieces. They enjoy being custom craftsman you!

I Wish...

I wish your Madigan Bar Stools came armless. Yes I know you make them backless and also with backs and arms. My customer wants backs with no arms. No problem! The designer contacted Hickory Chair for a special construction and we were able to make these one of a kind bar stools for their client.

How can our artisans help you find the perfect solution for your home?

Why Settle For Standard?

The perfect piece is a personal preference. In a world of off the shelf furniture, personalized items can be hard to find without turning to a custom work room. At Hickory Chair University you'll discover the amazing craftsmen that make individual pieces to order. For example, the TOB Canopy by Thomas O'Brien is made with the canopy. Another customer thought the bed would look great without the canopy and be more appropriate for their room. The designer contacted the customer service department and within 48 hours approval, the price and availablity were provided.

Why settle when there are craftsmen in Hickory, North Carolina who can help you create a custom one of a kind piece?
