Top-Grain Leather:  This highest quality leather is prized for its durability, natural beauty, and refined feel.  Unlike lesser grades, it retains the outermost layer of the hide – the strongest and most supple part – while being lightly sanded to create a smooth, sophisticated finish. It resists wear, develops a rich patina over time, and offers a luxurious, breathable surface that enhances comfort during long hours of use.  Your leather Rayburn Lounge Chair not only delivers superior performance but also ages gracefully, becoming more beautiful with each passing year.

A Chair of Distinction:  The supremely welcoming Rayburn Lounge Chair exhibits elevated taste and extraordinary craftsmanship.  Features include kiln-dried, double-doweled hardwood frame and eight-way hand-tied springs.  Supporting legs are carved from solid cherrywood with brass ferrules.  Backs are hand-tufted (as shown) with buttons tied by heavy-duty twine. 

Made in America:  Each historically-inspired masterpiece is built-to-order, one at a time, by skilled American craftsmen and made to last a lifetime.  The benefits of buying American made furniture go beyond your own home or office.  Furniture made in the USA tends to be of higher quality, better for the planet and better for the economy.

Office Seating, Inspired by the United States Congress.

"If a man has common sense, he has all the sense there is."  That pretty much summed up the philosophy of Sam Rayburn, who entered Congress in 1913 at the beginning of Woodrow Wilson's presidency and served in office for more than 48 years.  "Mr. Sam" served as the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives for 17 years, and is regarded as the most effective Speaker of the House in American history.

The Rayburn House Office Building, providing offices for the U.S. House of Representatives, was completed in early 1965. Named after the former Speaker of the House, the classical structure was built in architectural harmony with other Capitol Hill structures, with an interior decor that includes cherrywood paneling, brass railing, and marble floors. Furnishings for the Rayburn Building are characterized by strong lines and meticulous craftsmanship, all pieces designed and engineered according to exact the original Rayburn Building specifications. Considered the gold standard in American furniture construction.

Decades of development and hours of test-sitting went into the making of the handsome Rayburn Collection. The supremely welcoming Lounge Chair exhibits elevated taste and extraordinary craftsmanship. Features include kiln-dried, double-doweled hardwood frame and eight-way hand-tied springs. Supporting legs are carved from solid cherrywood with brass ferrules. Backs are hand-tufted (as shown) with buttons tied by heavy-duty twine. The upholstery is crafted in top-grain leather, selected from European cattle hides, known for their toughness and resilience, sanded and buffed to remove any imperfections, and fastened with full nail trim.
