In the case of this sofa, orange is DEFINITELY the new black!!! This is a fabulous vintage sofa by Stratford Designs wearing its original orange velvety chenille fabric. It is comprised of a tuxedo style frame with rolled arms, three back cushions and two side or arm cushions, all zippered and filled with ground foam, and a cozy foam filled bench seat cushion with marvelous button detail. It has two arm covers and round tapered brown plastic legs behind the base skirt. The fabric bears an all-over “perfectly imperfect” wear as you would expect with a vintage piece. We love it and would use it as is for a long time, however, some may wish to reupholster. Just imagine the limitless fabric possibilities!! One of the greatest assets this sofa bears is its incredibly comfortable single bench cushion! Yes, it's attractive but it’s quite possibly the PERFECT napping couch!!! No pesky cushion cracks to fall between!! Lol!! It is Modern in style, but it will blend in beautifully with many décor styles whether Mid-Century Modern, Industrial, Minimalist, Maximalist, or Hollywood Regency! Can’t you just see it in your family room, living room, or flanking the fireplace in the study? We certainly can!!
Morris Futorian came to the United States from the Ukraine with his sister and parents in 1923 as a fifteen-year-old young man. They lived in Chicago where he spent time beside his father at the Glabman Bros. Furniture where he swept floors while learning the trade and eventually becoming a foreman, until the Great Depression in 1934 rendered him and his family jobless. That sparked an interest in entrepreneurship and starting his own company. He began repairing broken furniture in his neighborhood to make ends meet. On September 13, 1948, Morris Futorian opened a single-story furniture production plant in New Albany, Mississippi he called “The Stratford Company.” He would transform the furniture industry with his introduction to an assembly line for furniture manufacturing. They created high quality furniture with mass assembly and eventually the plant would double, creating thousands of jobs, and would assist to evolve many other companies. He was inspired to the assembly line by a visit he made to a Detroit automobile assembly plant where he became intrigued as to why furniture couldn’t be made the same way. He would later be known as “The Henry Ford” of the upholstered furniture industry. Futorian built a massively successful empire and is in the American Furniture Hall of Fame. Morris Futorian retired in 1981 and he passed away in 1994.
