We're Not Just For Dining Rooms Anymore

Posted by Brad | Filed under news, wing chairs

Carrington Court has always offered other types of furniture besides parsons and dining chairs, but they were our sole focus on our website. Over the last few months we have greatly expanded our offerings and you can now order wing chairs, easy chairs and arm chairs. This is just the beginning and going forward we will be regularly introducing new designs.

I'm sure many of you are wondering what took us so long. The reason was simple: we could not provide the same service and value that we do for our dining and parsons chairs. Whenever we entertain the prospect of offering a new product it has to meet these requirements:

  1. Can we make it both high in quality and affordable?
  2. Will the cost of shipping be reasonable?
  3. Can it be delivered in a reasonable amount of time?

Quality and affordability are usually not an issue, but with oversize items shipping costs and delivery times have always been a problem. We don't want you to pay an arm and a leg to get your furniture or to wait months on end to have it delivered. Earlier this year we finally worked out a good shipping solution--one that meets our requirements.

In the last month or so we started offering wing chairs on the site and today we started an entirely new category called "Living Room Chairs." I know...I know. It's not a very originally name, but it encompasses a variety of furniture styles that are usually (but not exclusively) found in the living room.

So without further ado here are our to latest additions:

Eliot Arm Chair

Chandler Easy Chair

These are both great designs, but I've got to say that the Chandler Chair is just absolutely gorgeous. This is just the beginning and there is more to come, but if there is a particular style that you would like us to offer; we want to hear from you.

    Your Greenwich Parsons Wing Chair shown in the brown print is beautiful. I was wondering if you plan to offer the software that allows viewing of this chair in other fabrics any time soon. It would simplify ordering quite a bit.

    Kate,

    We'd love to offer the software that overlays fabrics on the chairs, but it is just too expensive. I look into this every year and the only way we can do this is to raise prices (a lot) which we a dead against.

    This is why we offer the ability to order swatches. While this does not give you the ability to see the fabric on a chair--it does allow you to see the actually size of a pattern (if there is one), fill the texture, judge the quality and verify the color scheme. If there is a particular fabric that you want to see on a chair, send an email to info@carringtoncourtdirect.com and we'll see if we have that fabric photographed. We take a lot of photos, so their is the possibility that we may have an example chair that would give you some type of idea.

    Let me know if you need anything else.
