You're at ANTIQUEUPHOLSTERER.COM/MODERN SOFAS, the website for
Joe Klem Furniture & Upholstery, located in Coburg, near Eugene Oregon.
On this page you'll find sofas, loveseats, and sectionals from roughly 1970 on,
with their yardage requirements and upholstery labor costs. No one style
dominates the last 40 years. There's everything from Early American to
neo-camelbacks. Seat cushions are almost always petroleum based foam, and
no-sag or sag-less springs replace the coils that characterized sofas for 130 years.
