Sulfaro – You deserve the best.

It’s always Sulfaro – When you require the finest quality, total comfort and superb craftsmanship. Here then is a luxury you can afford – and right now is the right time to visit our Mitcham showrooms for our annual Sulfaro Summer Sale.

From the design stage to the ultimate finish and pre-delivery preparation. Every step of the process occurs right here in Melbourne. Sulfaro Furniture is proudly Australian made using the highest quality materials from reputable fabric houses, foam from the Dunlop group (highest grades), Solid Hardwood framing blocked and professionally finished. And as you would expect, all Sulfaro Furniture naturally carries a lifetime guarantee [Conditions apply].

Sulfaro create their exclusive upholstered furniture in-house from the drawing board to the showroom floor. Traditional European styles and methodologies see ‘no corners cut’. The term originally was used where those who were ‘upholders’ – the original title for upholsterers, would crimp and save cloth. Rest assured at Sulfaro you receive full measure and more.

It’s a family enterprise, it always has been. Patriarch Nunzio Sulfaro creates the furniture templates for the fabric cuts and framing. Matriarch Francesca Sulfaro supervises and ensures the beautiful traditional stitching, piping and fabric preparation. Son Santo Sulfaro then ensures a precise assembly and manufacture of each individual piece of Sulfaro furniture. The Sulfaro craftsmen and artisans take the time and make the effort to hand build each individual item – Sofas, Armchairs, Occasional Chairs, Tub Chairs, Ottomans and more.

A mass produced Sofa, imported from a third world country, is generally machine made on a production line with very little finesse. Yet you’ll often pay very similar prices for such a sofa, a vastly inferior product to what you can now achieve at the Sulfaro Summer Sale for a genuine handcrafted and completed item.

You can own a Sulfaro – beautiful, handmade, exquisite European styled furniture – Lounge Suites, Dining Settings, Ornaments, Lamps and a full range of delightful accessories. Preview our collection here – https://sulfaro.com.au – starting with our Signature Selection, the most popular range of Sulfaro Sofas. Take the time to view our whole catalogue – the full Sulfaro Collection – Contemporary/Modern, Traditional/European, Classic/Hamptons and our Decor and Design Accessories. Make your choice, then discuss your fabric choices, timber finishing, colour matching, and cushioning with our Design Team. Design and Sales Manager Amelia Sulfaro will be happy to both assist you and advise you, with experience and understanding. Bring your floor plans or interior design concepts, as well as fabric samples you may desire to match.

For many people there are family heirloom pieces of classic and antique furniture, often in need of restoration and refurbishing. Loved and cherished, the owners often face a genuine dilemma – who can they trust to care for and restore these beautiful yet fragile pieces of upholstered furniture? Occasional Chairs, Chaise Lounges, Sofas, Armchairs, Ottomans – often built and crafted by skilled artisan up to 100 years ago.

Sulfaro will select the right fabrics or leathers to maintain the unit’s authenticity – framing, webbing, hand tied steel springs and cushioning, as well as piping, casters, and timber finishing.

Our team will apply the same diligence, care and ultimately love for your furniture piece as was applied when it was first manufactured. To be truthful, probably just that little bit more.
