August 22, 2019 / sulfaro2018 / Leave a comment

Springtime is the season of renewal, refreshment and regrowth. The blossom appears first then daffodils and jonquils. The days begin to lengthen, the light intensify as the season progresses on. Spring fashions emerge with new colours, new styles. As we leave the gloom of winter behind, a little more sunlight reveals hidden secrets. The family lounge suite now looks so worn and tired! So it’s time to visit Sulfaro and refresh and renew, selecting something new and exciting. A step up in quality, comfort and style. It’s time to renew your living areas with genuine handcrafted furniture from Melbourne’s own Sulfaro Furniture – new fabrics, new colours, new styles. It’s time for the Sulfaro experience.

Why Sulfaro? It’s a simple decision really. The Sulfaro Collection demonstrates an unrelenting pursuit of excellence in design, quality and detail. A Sulfaro lounge suite, sofa or occasional chair is handcrafted from start to finish right here in Melbourne at our Mitcham workshop. Established in 1962 by family patriarch Nunzio Sulfaro, the enterprise remains a family business. Now managed by his son Santo Sulfaro and Santo’s wife Amelia Sulfaro, the Sulfaro team of artisans still display an unwavering insistence on utilising the traditional furniture making and upholstery skills first introduced by Nunzio Sulfaro over 50 years ago.

When you purchase from Sulfaro you are taking ownership of a genuine handbuilt masterpiece, guaranteed to last you a lifetime. Today the design templates are still crafted by Nunzio Sulfaro and the same traditional methods of upholstery and framing ensure your Sulfaro creation is indeed a classic piece of furniture. And not only is it complete quality – it looks and feels amazing.

Whether it is a traditional or classic style or a more contemporary or modern design, you can be assured that it is put together with the same love and true appreciation of fine furniture that has been and still is the hallmark of the Sulfaro family – an uncompromising passion for true excellence in both design and comfort.

Selecting the very best in fine leathers, woollens, cottons, linens and composite fabrics – all sourced from the world’s leading fabric houses and leather suppliers, there are no substitutes – it has to be quality every time. With Francesca Sulfaro (Nunzio Sulfaro’s wife) along with Amelia Sulfaro ensuring that the latest colours, styles and types of fabric are made available along with popular and timeless favourites, Sulfaro is simply a superb choice when selecting quality crafted furniture.

Sulfaro does not offer cheap imported furniture, nor does it do production line ‘cookie-cutter’ modular furniture. All Sulfaro Furniture is original in design, handbuilt and crafted by skilled artisans, upholsterers and seamstresses. Customers can customise their selections choosing different fabrics, colours, piping, timber finishes, and even castors. At Sulfaro, we will be as individual as you are.

Apartment Living – with Sulfaro Furniture

August 7, 2019 / sulfaro2018 / Leave a comment

Apartment living is becoming more attractive to more people as many areas start to feature larger, more luxurious apartments in well serviced complexes. Apartments generally are more spacious with areas of 60sq’s and above not uncommon. Featuring panoramic views from multi-storey locations, the emphasis is indeed all about space, with ample room to move.

Inner Melbourne features luxury apartments in the CBD, Southbank, Docklands, South Melbourne, Port Melbourne, Kensington, Carlton – the list continues to grow. Without the concern of managing a larger suburban block, people purchasing apartments tend to focus on creating real comfort, luxury and a clever use of space, with beautiful furniture and accessories.

Interior Design is often paramount in creating the right feel, the right atmosphere in apartment living. With more open living areas, large expansive windows opening on to balconies and decking, there is a genuine uncluttered feel to modern apartments. Selecting the right furniture is of utmost importance in maintaining this new found ambience.

Furniture selection is critical. Larger modular lounge suites, corner units, ottomans – all with clean modern lines – linens, leathers, cotton and woven fabrics each have their place. Throws and cushions, lamps, ornaments and credenzas. Clean, crisp, stylish.

At Sulfaro, a wide selection of suitable lounge suites, sofa and armchair combinations and large expansive corner units provides a wonderful collection from which to choose, whether your apartment is modern, traditional or even art deco in older areas.

Our Contemporary/Modern Collection offers real inspiration with a wide range of designs and styling. You can view them here.

For something more traditional with a higher back and scrolled arms, something a little more ornate, view our Classic Hamptons Collection here.

For those who prefer a more European or Traditional style, there is a wonderful selection here featuring a range of timeless traditional classics.

All Sulfaro Sofas can be supplied in a full range of seating configurations from 2 seaters through to full Corner Units seating up to 8 people.

The Sulfaro range of ornaments, lamps, credenzas and side tables is simply breathtaking and admirably suitable for apartment living. View our Signature Collection here for some creative ideas on interior design and decoration.

Customisation and true Bespoke Design with Sulfaro

August 1, 2019August 1, 2019 / sulfaro2018 / Leave a comment

In Australia today, most furniture is manufactured offshore. Sulfaro are one of the few remaining local manufacturers, with good reason. At Sulfaro, our accomplished team of skilled craftsmen, seamstresses and framers still take great pride in producing the genuine handcrafted and upholstered furniture it has now been creating for over 50 years.

With both bespoke and traditional design – contemporary modern classics through to genuine traditional European iconic style, Sulfaro continues to produce simply beautiful handcrafted upholstered furniture with a tasteful Italian flourish.

What this doesn’t mean is receiving finished or semi-finished product from Asia and branding it. You can be entirely satisfied that your newly selected lounge suite, sofa, armchairs, occasional chairs or ottoman has been entirely created and finished right here in Melbourne, at our Mitcham factory and workshop.

Family patriarch Nunzio Sulfaro first commenced designing and handcrafting beautiful European and Italian style furniture in the early 1960s, when he first arrived in Australia from Italy. Classically trained as a furniture maker, Nunzio specialised in design, framing, upholstery and finishing to a standard seldom previously seen or experienced in Australia.

Nunzio Sulfaro and his family have introduced new standards of excellence and simply exquisite design over a fifty-year period culminating in the simply masterful range of furniture that today is the Sulfaro Furniture Collection. The tradition continues with son Santo Sulfaro and his highly skilled team of artisans and craftsmen. Even today Nunzio oversees all new designs and the finishing and quality demanded of Sulfaro Furniture.

The choice is yours. Select a handmade, artisan crafted and created Sofa, Armchair, Lounge Suite or Ottoman from master craftsmen, offered with a lifetime guarantee from Sulfaro – or simply a production line sofa and armchairs from a local retailer imported from a third world manufacturer.

Take the time to browse through our extensive Sulfaro Collection and consider the setting most appropriate for your living area – a wide range of Classic and Contemporary designs to suit most tastes. Once you have selected a preferred design and style, take the time to discuss fabrics as well as colours and combinations with our experienced design team led by Amelia Sulfaro.

From plush velvets, satins and soft linens, to rich leathers, supple and luxurious, Sulfaro offer a brilliant range of materials from the world’s leading fabric houses. Your lounge suite can be as individual as you are, reflecting your taste and style. Working in harmony with our skilled craftsmen and women, Amelia and her team can ensure your selection is exactly a you desire – a true Sulfaro masterpiece.

Don’t delay. Now is the time to order your new lounge suite, sofa or dining setting to ensure you are enjoying the Sulfaro experience this Spring, relaxing in real comfort and luxury. There is always a wide selection of floor stock available right now – all offering the same consistent levels of quality, comfort and design excellence, with some items substantially discounted.

Schedule a visit this week to our Mitcham Showrooms, located at 650-652 Whitehorse Rd Mitcham (Cnr of Cochrane St) approximately 1km west or the Ringwood exit ramps on Eastlink. Sulfaro is open seven days a week, Monday to Saturday 10am until 5pm, Sundays from 11am until 4pm. Call now on 03 9872 4608 to make an appointment with our Sales and Design team at your convenience.
