About Us  |
| company overview |
Jess Crate Furniture is handcrafted by a team of craftsmen with over 20 years of experience in the furniture business.
Each piece is handcrafted of Southern Yellow Pine harvested from the most densely covered forest in North Carolina.
We have designed Jess Crate Furniture to withstand the heavy use and abuse the commercial facilities demand, yet reflect the beautiful wood grain and classical styles that one may enjoy in residential settings.
Our pine is dried to our specifications of less than 10% moisture content for added stability, durability and long life. Furniture panels are edge-glued in our own laminating plant with a premium wood glue. During sub-assembly each piece is secured with screws, glue and nails. Afterwards, edges are routed for attractive water-based lacquer finishes. Our sanding and finishing teams go over each piece by hand to give a smooth custom six step finish.
Cushions are constructed of high-density polyurethane foam. Zippered upholstery materials are available in a variety of styles, colors, and materials, all hand-sewn for a custom fit.

| Why crate-style furniture? |
Crate-style FURNITURE is forever!
The type and style of furniture is everlasting. We have many repeat customers, but very few that request repair or replacement products. Why? This product has been known to last 10, 15 even 20 years in the field with daily use by students, campers, families, children and pets. It refinishes with a piece of sandpaper, brush and a can of stain.
|
Dependable
This style of furniture has been on the market, in many forms, for some 30+ years. We can customize our products to be compatible to other brands of products that you thought were now non-existent. We can come out and measure, tell you what you have and match it, allowing you to utilize your existing furniture, saving money and avoiding the cost of complete replacement bedrooms.
|
Transferable
Many of our customers are recipients of furniture that has been handed down through on or two generations. We often receive requests for lower bunks, upper bunks, replacement cushions, side trays, arm pads, etc. so that they may use the furniture that they have come to love through their own childhood, teen and adult life.
|
Renewable and eco-friendly
Our southern yellow pine comes from the fine forests of North Carolina. More trees are planted than are harvested each year here, which creates resources for future generations, while managing for multiple uses, such as wildlife and recreation.
Our stains and lacquer finishes are completely water based and have no harmful effects on the environment both outside and, more importantly, inside of your home or living space!
