Norwalk Furniture Spotlights Leather Upholstery Collections at LV Market

April 9, 2021  by Laurie Northington in Business Strategy, Industry   

“Livable and multi-functional furniture that can withstand life’s unexpected moments has been at the forefront of design for some time and as we continue to navigate through the pandemic and spend more time at home, durability is even more critical,” said Caroline Hipple, president of Norwalk Furniture. “We are all enjoying more meals in our living rooms – maybe more than we’d care to admit – our furry friends are spending more time on the sofas and children who are remote learning have turned our living rooms into classrooms. This is our ‘new normal’ and our focus this Market is to highlight all of these scenarios with open arms by offering stylish and comfortable leather upholstery that can truly withstand whatever life throws at us.”

Inspired by everyday life, Norwalk Furniture’s Purely Protected leather textile collection offers a family-friendly solution in a variety of patterns, textures and colors. Available in 22 options, the leathers were designed to reduce scratching, fading, staining and color variations, while maintaining the look and feel of aniline, wax or oil leathers.

Highlights of the silhouettes featured in Purely Protected leathers include:

• Albany Chair: Joining Norwalk’s collection of contemporary accent chairs is the barrel-backed Albany. With a minimalist polished steel captured frame, Albany’s sloping arms and rounded back are positioned just right to assure optimal support and comfort. Albany is available in leather as well as Norwalk’s 800 fabrics.
• Louise Variations Program: This line provides consumers with the opportunity to select from 26 style choices, including three sofa lengths, a loveseat, two chair sizes, three ottoman shapes and a sectional. All pieces are available with a choice of four arm styles, two back styles, four leg styles, two back heights as well as welt preference.
• Koki Sofa: Available in both 82- and 118-inch widths, the Koki Sofa is perfect for a contemporary living room or family room. The sleek silhouette features a thin “paddle-shaped” arm and narrow front rail that sits high off the floor on contemporary metal legs. With 43-inch deep comfort down cushions and an ultra-soft back, this piece is one of Norwalk Furniture’s plushiest seating options. It is available in any of Norwalk’s 800 fabrics and 150 leathers.
• Flannery Leather Chair and Ottoman: Organically woven with supportive webbing featuring striped detailing, the Flannery Leather Chair has loose seat cushions and an armless silhouette with streamlined legs in a natural finish. The coordinating Ottoman adds to the casual look. It is available in 800 fabrics or 100 leather options.
• Cremini Ottoman: Just like their mushroom namesakes, the Cremini ottomans are capped with a unique extended crown. Each ottoman in the collection is similarly designed, but offered in 31-, 35- and 39-inch diameters and 22-, 20- and 18-inch heights, which make them uniquely appropriate for a variety of uses in the home. It is available in leather as well as Norwalk’s 800 fabrics.
• Elroy Recliner: A contemporary addition to Norwalk Furniture’s recliner collection, the fully powered Elroy Recliner offers dual functionality as both a swivel glider and a recliner. Featuring a padded waterfall cushion and an interestingly shaped angular arm, when fully reclined, it functions as a chaise, for a more unified and comfortable feel. It is available in any of Norwalk’s 800 fabrics and 150 leathers.

The items will be on display in Norwalk’s showroom at the Las Vegas Market in Building A, space A225.
