Inspired by bright and airy California living, Kreiss Furniture was founded in 1939 when the Kreiss family began importing furniture from far-flung locales like Japan, Italy, and Thailand. As their inventory grew, the family opened showrooms in their most beloved CA hideaways—La Jolla, Palm Desert, Laguna. In the 1970s, Kreiss Furniture introduced their own line, which seamlessly blended elements of worldly eclecticism with California's token, by-the-sea elegance.
