Now more than ever is the right time to buy ‘Australian Made’. But to be more explicit, now is the time to buy genuine Australian Made products. At Sulfaro our furniture is completely Australian made – right down to the last detail. And the actual quality is in every detail – handcrafted, hand built. Exquisite design, a fabulous finish – truly elegant, comfortable furniture – made to last a lifetime.

It’s fashionable now to claim your furniture is Australian made. But often that’s not the case – it’s merely assembled here. This is very true of several very large National organisations with multiple branches around Australia. The framing, the components such as springs, cushioning and the associated accessories are made offshore. Normally assembled by a third party trader in China, Indonesia, Malaysia or the Philippines, the component parts are now shipped to Australia and assembled. Why? Because the seller can then claim it’s “Australian made” when in fact it most definitely isn’t – it’s merely assembled here.

Contrast this to Sulfaro Furniture. At our Mitcham Studio and Workshop, our team of trained artisans – frame builders, upholsterers, seamstresses and apprentices create your sofa, lounge suite, armchairs and ottomans from the ground up; Using F1 Australian Hardwood, first quality memory foam, stainless steel springs and accessories – all sourced locally supporting many local Australian industries; with all works overseen and supervised by Master Craftsman Santo Sulfaro. Yes that’s correct – right here in Melbourne.

The Sulfaro team use templates and pattern designs created exclusively in our Mitcham Studio. All Sulfaro designs are original and unique. The Sulfaro Collection was actually commenced way back in 1962 – elegant European furniture with a dash of Italian style and panache – real timeless beauty.

For many it’s about enjoying a new lifestyle – Apartment living. Panoramic views, open space, privacy, comfort and security. The Sulfaro Collection offers a superb range of lounge suites, sofas, armchairs and accessories for apartment living. Comfort, luxury and gracious elegant style. Apartment living? – Sulfaro is the right choice

Often, when considering new furniture, we all welcome professional advice. Having just completed major renovations, purchased a new apartment or built a new home, it’s now time to furnish. Naturally the desire is to accentuate and compliment the design elements and beauty of your property with an elegant and clever selection of superbly crafted, comfortable furniture – lounge suites, dining suites and occasional chairs and accessories. At Sulfaro, the process is made simple and accessible – we offer a complimentary Interior Design service.

According to well-known Architect Andrew Fedorowicz of Balance Architecture, the completion of any major renovation or new build requires competent interior design to satisfy the overall project.

“Why create a refined elegant vista and then finish off with a flat featureless interior? Furniture needs to be carefully selected. It needs to bring out the form and elegance, the space and the warmth of your interiors, taking into account the lighting, colour schemes and surfaces of your living areas.”

At Sulfaro, we offer a complimentary Interior Design service. To access the service, call and make an appointment with our design team, headed up by Amelia Sulfaro on 03 9872 4608.

Please then feel welcome to bring your floor plans, architectural plans or house plan to the meeting. Be confident to bring photographs of interiors you admire, furniture you find attractive, colour samples, fabric or leather samples, and information on colour schemes, flooring or features such as feature windows, bifold doors, indoor/outdoor areas, living room and bedroom layouts – anything you feel may assist or requires attention.

At the same time, take the opportunity to browse the Sulfaro Collection on our website and select the designs, the styles of lounge suites, sofas, armchairs and occasional chairs you desire. Also view our range of Decor and Design Accessories – cabinets, credenzas, buffets, coffee tables, side tables, lamps and much more.

“If you have the opportunity to select your fabrics, leather and finishing on your new furniture, take it. Create your individual space that you’re comfortable with. Seek qualified advice, go the extra mile. There’s nothing more disappointing than to downgrade your newly renovated or constructed living areas with cheap, uninspiring, mass manufactured furniture.”

Andrew Fedorowicz Architect
Fellow of the Australian Institute of Architects

The Sulfaro Made in Melbourne Sale. Extra Quality, Extra Comfort, Extra Value “The Sulfaro Experience”

When making a purchase, we all desire that little extra. That special addition that completes our feeling of accomplishment. When selecting furniture, it’s both the little extras and the very real features that confirm Sulfaro Furniture as the very best available. Handcrafted, hand built here in Melbourne. Made in Australia – and right now with our ‘Made in Melbourne’ Sale, discounts of up to 40% on marked items.

But getting back to extras, a Sulfaro sofa, armchair or dining setting offers so much more. Each piece is lovingly crafted by our skilled artisans under the watchful eye of master craftsman Santo Sulfaro. Each piece is individually crafted at our Mitcham Studios and Workshop from frame building to the finished item, with that extra attention to detail and quality.

Fabrics are selected from the world’s leading fabric houses. Leather from the best suppliers. Foam or down cushioning is prepared and finished using the very best materials available. There is no compromise on quality. It’s that little bit extra that makes the Sulfaro difference.

 

The Sulfaro experience. Quality, luxury and comfort with a lifetime guarantee on all workmanship (repairs and maintenance are only a phone call away – not a continent). Repairs and refurbishments on fabrics are simple – Sulfaro is Melbourne based, providing easy pick-up and delivery.

Take a look at our Sulfaro Collection and you’ll be excited and delighted at the range of designs and styles available across the entire Sulfaro range. It’s the little extras – the skirting, the fringing, the piping, all in stunning fabrics and materials. The brass casters, the timber finishing, all standard, part of the masterful creation of every Sulfaro piece of furniture. European elegance, with sophisticated Italian design and styling. Traditional classic designs as well as modern contemporary masterpieces.

Add to this an extensive range of Recliner units – chairs, sofas and full lounge suites as well as Sofa Beds. You’ll find this under Recliners and Motion Suites – a full range of both leather and fabric units in modern comfortable designs.

To compliment this beautiful and exquisite selection, Sulfaro offers a complete range of Accessories such as Lamps, Credenzas, Side Cabinets, Coffee and Side Tables, Mirrors and featured Statuettes and Objets De Art. These can be viewed here – Decor and Design Accessories.

A full range of Dining Settings from full extendable dining tables for up to 12 people or simple settings for 2-4 people are also available and now on sale. Timber, glass and ceramics, the choice is yours.

Compare this beautiful furniture to what is available in the big furniture outlets. Most of the stock in those outlets is robotically manufactured in third world sweatshops – in Indonesia, China, Vietnam and the Philippines. There is simply no comparison. You have little or no choice in fabrics or leathers, framing is often inferior – it’s a cookie cutter option from start to finish – one size fits all.

Make the time to schedule a visit to our extensive Sulfaro Showrooms located in Mitcham (details below). Sit back and relax and really enjoy that extra comfort and delight in the simply gorgeous designs. And right now with our Made in Melbourne Sale, your selected lounge suite could be yours, delivered and in your home within the week – with that little extra discount of up to 40%! Now that’s something you can really enjoy!
