/ sulfaro2018 / Leave a comment

After a long, wet winter and a very wet spring no doubt we are all looking forward to a warmer summer and the chance to relax and entertain family and friends over the holiday period. Now is the time to plan and renew our living areas in preparation for Christmas and the holidays. Expand your dining setting to accommodate the whole of your extended family – add new sofas, armchairs and occasional chairs to provide the ultimate in comfort and relaxation. Create the interior and the flow into your outdoor areas that achieves real comfort, real luxury for you and your guests.

Utilising an Interior Designer – the Benefits

It’s often a clever idea to engage an Interior Designer to re-imagine your living areas. A trained eye can view your home spaces in an objective manner. A Designer will create flow and comfort for you and your family with a vision that encourages you to occupy, use and enjoy your living space. Good Designers will consider your overall floor space, the size of your rooms and open spaces. Today there is a move to encouraging indoor/outdoor merging of space with bi-fold doors, glass sliding doors and a resulting seamless flow from indoor living areas to patios, outdoor decking and the like.

Good design requires beautiful, complementary furniture. Quality fabrics and leathers with genuine style and comfort.  There is none better than Sulfaro. Handcrafted and handmade, measured and refined to meet the specifications of your home. It’s the reason why well known and respected Interior Designers often choose Sulfaro. It’s the ability to be able to select the fabrics and materials they desire to ensure an absolutely superb finish for their clients. It’s the workmanship, the end result, that can only be achieved by a Master Craftsman and his team of Artisans, Tradespeople and Finishers.

Customisation

All Sulfaro customers and clients have the opportunity to customise their selected Sulfaro furniture – sofas, chairs, ottomans and dining chairs, to achieve the look, the feel, the vision they have for their new furniture and their home. The Sulfaro Design Team have created a superb collection of fine fabrics and leathers from which clients can choose and select the colours, the materials and also the fabric accessories they prefer and desire – buttoning, piping, skirting, fringing, cushioning.

When selecting your new furniture there are a number of key elements to consider.

Design

The Sulfaro range of exclusive furniture was established in the early 1960s, a combination of both traditional pieces – Sofas, armchairs, ottomans and dining chairs as well as some very eclectic very ‘hip’ European design as was the fashion at the time.


Today’s exciting Sulfaro Collection retains that key element of original design. Some Sulfaro designs retain Classic and Traditional appearances. It’s a look that simply doesn’t date. Carefully hand-built, hand-crafted in our modern studio and workshop, each piece is lovingly created by Master Craftsman Santo Sulfaro and his team of skilled and gifted artisans and tradespeople – upholsterers, seamstresses, frame makers and finishers.

Whether you select a Classic, Traditional, or Contemporary design, you can be confident that your choice is an original Sulfaro design crafted using the very finest in fabrics and materials. Solid hardwood frames, stainless steel springs with the very best in cushioning and accessories. Best of all, Sulfaro Furniture comes with a lifetime guarantee on all workmanship, and it’s made in Australia – completely.

But what’s sure to capture your imagination and ultimately the major attraction to the Sulfaro range, is the sheer beauty, the exquisite lines, the luxury and comfort of a Sulfaro Sofa, Lounge Suite or Chair. It’s time to relax, to revel in the touch, the support and comfort only a Sulfaro Sofa can provide.

Take the time to browse our website for design ideas and some simply beautiful settings – matching Sofas with armchairs, Occasional Chairs and accessories such as designer lamps, luxurious coffee tables, side tables and sumptuous rugs. You must start with our gorgeous Signature Series. The Signature Series represents some of our most popular Sofas, Armchairs and accessories.

Simply call us on 03 9872 4608 and schedule a meeting with Amelia Sulfaro and the Sulfaro design team.

Quality

Most of the furniture available through larger furniture outlets is imported. Often it is robotically manufactured in off-shore factories to a relatively limited number of cookie-cutter designs. Materials are standardised, with cheaper timbers and plywoods being used for framing. Cushion foams are often low quality, meaning the cushioning loses its form with use. Basically, it may look good in the showroom but with wear and tear, such furniture will need replacement within a few years. Sulfaro is completely Australian made, using Australian components and materials wherever possible.

In comparison, the imported furniture offered through large wholesalers or furniture barns, is often assembled from modules manufactured off-shore enabling an Australian made claim to be made. It’s anything but.

Buying from Sulfaro supports the Australian economy, local industry and local employment. Unlike with imported furniture, the money stays here, supporting local workers and their families.

Design, Comfort and Quality – the hallmarks of all Sulfaro Furniture; with over two large stores of floor-stock available now, it’s the right time to select your new lounge suite – and enjoy up to 40% discount at our huge Autumn Sale.

Location

Sulfaro is located at 650 – 652 Whitehorse Rd, Mitcham, Cnr of Cochrane St. This is approximately 1 KM West of the Ringwood Off ramps on Eastlink.

The Sulfaro Collection offers a huge range of the highest quality Lounge Suites, Sofas, Armchairs, Occasional Chairs, Dining Settings and an amazing array of complementary accessories such as lamps, side tables, coffee tables, mirrors, credenzas, buffets and more.

Our Dining table selections include polished timber, ceramic, marble, metallic and glass surfaces for consideration – from fully extendable tables seating 12-16 people through to compact units suitable for the breakfast nook or sunroom.

On Australia Day it is well worth considering the option of buying ‘Australian Made’. All Sulfaro Furniture is lovingly crafted by genuine artisan trades men and women. From framing to webbing, springs and upholstery, we endeavour to utilise Australian made components at all times. With a tradition spanning nearly 60 years, the Sulfaro story is one of original design, superb quality and luxury appointments. All fabrics and leathers are selected from Australian Fabric houses and the world’s leading suppliers. In choosing Sulfaro Furniture you are supporting Australian workers and their families and ensuring that your monies stay here, boosting our Australian economy instead of being remitted offshore to a distant manufacturer in China, India, Malaysia or Indonesia.

With the large Furniture Wholesalers you are often purchasing furniture that claims to be Australian made, but is frequently simply assembled here from components shipped by the container load from offshore manufacturers. Using modular methods each part is robotically produced with little or no finesse.

Compare this to Sulfaro. At Sulfaro every piece of furniture is literally created on site from framing through to finished Upholstery. This is furniture created and completed by true artisans under the watchful eye of Master Craftsman Santo Sulfaro, utilising the methodologies handed down over many generations.

And it’s no cookie-cutter operation. You as the customer or client have the opportunity to sit down with our Design team, led by Amelia Sulfaro, and customise your selected Lounge Suite or Sofa style in the manner you desire. Select the fabrics, colours and accessories to suit your interior design and personal taste. Choose the piping, the skirting, the fringing, buttoning, timber finishing, castors – it’s a world of choice. Tailored to your needs, your taste and your desires, it’s a truly individual process and delivers a result that will ultimately delight and please you for many years.

Sulfaro Furniture employs local Artisans, supports and engages young people in both Industry apprenticeships and work experience programs. Ultimately, the outcome for customers is a refined, superbly finished product that you can be proud to own, that in all likelihood will last you a lifetime, and best of all Sulfaro furniture is simply timeless in its beauty.

So don’t delay, schedule a visit now and be delighted by the possibilities. Take a seat, sit back, relax and enjoy the genuine luxury and comfort of a Sulfaro Sofa, Armchair or Lounge Suite. Relax and when you purchase know that your new furniture is guaranteed for a lifetime on its workmanship with any assistance only a phone call or email away.

It’s from Sulfaro – and it’s simply the very best in handcrafted furniture available Australia wide.

Design – Luxury, Comfort and Quality.
