A Sherrill piece is easy to customize because the entire company is built around the idea that furniture should reflect the person who lives with it. Their website makes that clear: customization isn’t an add‑on or an upgrade—it’s the heart of how Sherrill designs, builds, and finishes every piece. Total Concepts Furniture is the only store in the southeast dedicated to Sherrill furniture. Visit our showroom and talk with our designers about making your space personal.
A Craft System Designed for Personal Choice
Sherrill’s approach to customization starts long before a customer selects a fabric or finish. Their manufacturing process is intentionally built around flexibility. Skilled craftspeople in Hickory, North Carolina hand‑build each frame using traditional techniques—double dowels, corner blocks, and 8‑way hand‑tied springs—so the structure can support a wide range of styles, cushions, and tailoring choices without compromising durability.
Because each piece is made to order, Sherrill doesn’t rely on mass‑production shortcuts. Instead, they treat every frame as a foundation for personalization. This means customers can choose the exact comfort level, silhouette, and detailing they want, and the construction will adapt to it seamlessly.
And, creating a custom piece of furniture is just down-right fun. Not only can you work with one of our designers, you can watch your creating come to life in one of our computer programs. That means you can make adjustments and change your idea before the piece goes into production next door in North Carolina.
Fabrics, Finishes, and Details That Fit Any Vision
One of the most impressive parts of Sherrill’s customization experience is the sheer variety of materials available. The company partners with respected fabric mills to offer an extensive library of textiles—from performance fabrics to luxury weaves—so homeowners and designers can match any aesthetic or lifestyle need.
Beyond fabric, Sherrill offers:
- Multiple cushion types, from relaxed and plush to firm and tailored.
- Custom finishes across categories like Masterpiece, Custom Line, Mahogany, and Carved Chairs.
- Hand‑applied nailhead trims in a range of sizes, colors, and spacing options.
- Custom throw pillows, sewn and upholstered in‑house for perfect coordination.
Each of these elements is applied by hand, which means the final product reflects true craftsmanship—not assembly‑line shortcuts.
The 6 Series: Customization Made Simple
Sherrill’s website highlights the 6 Series Design Choices program, which makes the customization process even easier. Customers can select from curated combinations of arms, backs, bases, and cushions to create a piece that feels completely personal without being overwhelming. It’s a guided, intuitive way to design a sofa or chair that fits both style and comfort preferences.
This program is especially helpful for shoppers who want a custom look but appreciate a streamlined decision‑making process. It blends the freedom of bespoke design with the clarity of a structured system.
Tailoring That Brings It All Together
Once the materials and design elements are chosen, Sherrill’s craftspeople take over. Specialized cutters match patterns carefully, sewing technicians stitch with precision, and upholsterers hand‑tailor each piece to ensure a flawless finish. Every step is inspected—frame, fabric, sewing, upholstery—before the furniture is custom‑packed for delivery.
This level of attention means the customization you choose is executed with the same care as the construction itself.
A Custom Experience That Feels Effortless
What makes Sherrill stand out is how easy they make the entire process. Whether you’re a designer or a homeowner, you can create a piece that reflects your taste, your comfort preferences, and your home’s personality—without navigating a complicated or confusing system. Their blend of craftsmanship, curated options, and guided design tools turns customization into a pleasure rather than a chore.
