Our decision to select Copeland Furniture as the new Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation exclusive furniture licensee was made for several reasons: their high quality of product, their willingness to expand the furniture selection to include complete collections, and their effort to achieve price points allowing all generations to own Mr. Wright’s furniture designs.” - Doug Volker , Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. |

Select solid hardwoods – Frank Lloyd Wright Furniture by Copeland
starts with solid hardwood (Cherry and White Oak) from The Northern
Forests. The White Oak is quartersawn to reveal a ray-fleck in the
grain. This time-consuming process is essential to obtaining distinctive
wood characteristics and adds stability.

Miter-Wrap construction – In Wright’s day, craftsmen achieved the bold,
sturdy tabletops of thick-cut hardwood with woodworking techniques
that are all but forgotten. Copeland has revived miter-wrap construction
for tabletops that present 2 inches or more at the edge – enabling the
wood grain from the top to continue over ends and sides.

English Dovetails – Asymmetrical English dovetails form perfect, rigid
fits for drawer and case pieces. Copeland makes these intricate cuts
utilizing precise, computer-programmed machining. |
