Handcrafted Furniture
I take my time and really get to know each piece of fine furniture before I design. This can take a week - and sometimes as long as a month. These chairs are like my characters in a play. And similar to a costumier designing for the theatre, I feel the energy of the production and let my creativity flow.
Each piece is meticulously crafted

And similar to a costumier designing for the theatre, I feel the energy of the production and let my creativity flow.
Each piece is meticulously crafted by master upholsterers and seamstresses.

Like a painter, my passion is color and design, but my inspiration comes directly from my free-spirited and adventurous life.
I get to know each piece when I design. I get to know it, feel it, then I know when it's right.
No two designs are the same.
There is an abundance of attention to details.
Pieces are finished with fine tassels & trims

It's like wearing a necklace or earrings,
it just finishes the look.
Each piece is adorned with fancy embroidered cambric (the fabric underneath). It's like wearing sexy lingerie, no one knows you're wearing it but it makes you feel fine.

Some of my chairs are vintage and hand-carved, and some are new designer pieces.
My fabrics are scrumptious and often come from well known textile designers. Trims, tassels & buttons are gathered from around the globe.

About Monica Cortright
I found my bliss. I love creating my chairs!
I studied theatre & costume design. Music, art and design have always been my passions. I've designed many things in my career and when I adorned my first chairs, they came to life! I treat them as if they are characters in a play. The textiles are clothes and the tassels and trims are jewelry. I always get to know them before they get a name.
I'm crazy passionate about chairs! I'm obsessed with color & style. Yes, I talk to my chairs... and sometimes they talk back.
~Monica~
