Furniture Trends: Nailhead Trim

Details transform nice furniture into beautiful furniture. While some people prefer furniture with a more classic look, others like to incorporate trendy details into the pieces they choose. England Furniture has countless styles which include this trendy detail, the nailhead trim.

This sofa, the Renea Sofa, features a nailhead trim across the bottom and on the arm panels. Though the brass nails have an antique feel, this style has made a comeback in recent years. This sofa has simple features, which lets the details shine. Modest rolled arms with perfectly tailored cushions are accented by the nailhead trim and turned wood legs.

The other piece pictured is the Anne Ottoman with Nails. It pairs well with the Renea sofa because of the corresponding features–namely the turned wood legs and the brass nailhead trim. This ottoman has a tufted top that contrasts with the smooth cushions of the Renea sofa.

Though the nailhead trim might seem like an edgy detail made out of hardware, it has become a detail featured on furniture in homes all across America.

England Furniture Reviews the Boone Collection

When you want rustic, statement furniture that looks great and will stand the test of time, look no further than the Boone collection. Here, England Furniture reviews this collection. This set features a sofa and loveseat, pictured in a chocolatey brown leather, but it can also come with a chair and ottoman. There’s no substitute for authenticity, and these bold pieces of furniture are no exception. The sofa and loveseat feature broad rolled arms, comfortable back cushions, and high tapered wooden legs.

These pieces look great when paired with the Literal Cocktail Ottoman, featured here, as well as the Langley chair with or without nails. The cowhide on the back of the Lorenzo Chair picks up on the deep browns in the surrounding furniture and the white walls.

This furniture is made with quality craftsmanship in the foothills of Tennessee where the factory has been employing locals for decades. American made furniture means you can trust you’re getting a quality piece that will last for years. Not only is the leather strong enough to stand the test of time, but the structure and the cushions are also built to last.

England Furniture Reviews the Tara Collection

England Furniture Tara Collection

There are so many furniture options out there, so it’s important to ensure you are investing in quality when making your purchase. Contemporary furniture, like the sleek pieces in the new Tara Collection is often mimicked by manufacturers who use cheap materials and mass produce identical products. England Furniture takes pride in their made-in-America furniture, using high quality wood, springs and fabrics. Here, England Furniture reviews what’s inside their high-quality sofas, chairs, loveseats and ottomans.

The frame is made from frame-grade plywood, which has few voids between its layered panels. It’s a stronger material that’ll last decades longer than bargain options. Under the cushions hide narrow sinuous springs, instead of the wide loop springs other manufacturers use. These springs offer more support and a longer lasting seat.

The arms are coated in a thin layer of sheeted fiber, in addition to two inches of foam. Other furniture companies use only fiber to cover their arms. The foam core of our cushions is much larger than many other brands, and is wrapped in a fiber wrap. Often, other manufacturers cut corners and wrap in a higher pile of fiber to give the appearance of a comfortable cushion. Theirs last only a year, while ours are warrantied for ten years.

All these elements come together in the Tara collection, which includes a sofa, loveseat, chair, and ottoman. These pieces can come in styles with a nailhead trim for added detail. The high legs are a hallmark of contemporary design.

Chesterfield Inspired Sofas

Dorchester Abbey Rondell Sofa

In 18th century England, your status in society was defined by your family, and your taste. The 4th Earl of Chesterfield was trendsetter during this time, and he took pride in his personal style, as well as the appearance of his home. His legacy is a piece of furniture that has stood the test of time.

Legend has it, that Lord Phillip Stanhope, Earl of Chesterfield, commissioned a chair that was not only beautiful, but also set a trend for high class furniture going forward. He envisioned a chair with a low seat, nailhead trim, high rolled arms, and quilted leather with deep buttons. It is believed that on his deathbed, he gifted this chair to a young diplomat who began commissioning chairs in its fashion, thus sparking the trend.

Though there’s no way to confirm the origin story of the Chesterfield style, it has inspired furniture designers for hundreds of years going forward. England Furniture’s Dorchester Abbey Rondell Sofa 2R05 is an ode to this style, with its deep tufted back, antique bronze nails, and large rolled arms which sit at the same level of the backrest. Similar styles include a loveseat, chair and ottoman.

Hottest Trends in Remodeling

RemodelingTrendsEnglandFurniture

When remodeling your living space, it can be fun to draw from trends that you see on television and online. Tastefully incorporating trends into your design vision can be hard to master, which is why finding an interior designer can be a great help. If you’re planning your space solo, here are some trendy ideas that can spark your imagination to reach the room’s potential.

Exposed Wood Beams
They’re beautiful and can even help make your house architecturally safer. Exposed wood beams on your ceiling add an element reminiscent of farmhouse living. Often, you can find inexpensive reclaimed wood or opt for synthetic versions that look like the real thing. Both vaulted and cathedral ceilings look great with exposed beams, but you can integrate them into any room.

Exposed Brick
Today’s trends take homeowners back to basics. Older buildings often have exposed brick hidden away behind dry wall, so before demo day make sure to check for this hidden treasure. If you live in a newer space, you can always incorporate an accent wall or columns made of brick for a rustic feel.

Thick Crown and Base Molding
Creating contrast between the ceiling and floor can help to make the room look bigger. The easiest way to do that is with thick crown and base molding. It doesn’t have to be intricate, but it adds an extra layer of interest to the space. Make sure to keep the color white and have a contrasting color on the walls.

Gray Paint
This unexpected final touch came about recently, but gray tones can go modern or rustic. You can play around with the tone of the room, but ultimately it has a classic feel. Even gray furniture can help you complete your look–this gray sofa is the EZ Motion Reclining Sofa with Nails EZ1C01N. There are hundreds of fabric options offered by the England Furniture Company that can help you stay on trend and create a beautiful home.
