The grade of upholstery vinyl is decided by the manufacturer or dealer. The cost of building an item with $20 per yard upholstery is much less expensive than using $50 per yard. In order to price units properly for custom furniture, we take into consideration the quantity of the order and the material selection. In order to make the pricing simple, we classify our vinyl into serval different numbered classes. The classes solely refer to the cost of the material. If a material is expensive, we charge grade 10 pricing. If a material is inexpensive, we charge grade 3. For COM we charge grade 3 for most simple solid patterns.

Our company is not different. We stock many patterns and colors by Naugahyde, Nassimi, and Omnova. We can also buy direct from many other mills if you need us to source your material for you.

We sometimes have to adjust how tight we make the vinyl for some of our higher end Cowboy Barstools. The wings on the top need to be pulled really tight with a lot of eat to avoid wrinkles. One way to make this easier is to make an extra section of material and put a seam on the flaps to relieve some tension. Many materials are hard to work with but we get it figured out. Whether its denin or burlap, we will figure it out for you.
