Theodore Alexander Furniture: Antique-Inspired Innovation

About Theodore Alexander Furniture

Theodore Alexander was founded in 1996 by visionary Paul Maitland Smith. Smith grew up with a fascination for old antiques and a drive to create antique reproductions to rival the inspiration. While antique lovers are sure to find stunning pieces in the Theodore Alexander furniture catalogs, there’s no wanting for modernity, either.

Even with thousands of furnishings, true craftsmanship shows through in every piece. The attention to detail and drive for environmentally sourced materials leaves you with a signature piece that will last lifetimes. While inspiration is drawn from antique furnishings, there is no lack of innovation in the creation of more unique and distinct modern pieces.
In true antique fashion, every detail and finishing touch is accounted for. Each piece is sanded, painted, and finished on all sides, even the areas you don’t see. Wood, metal, and wax details are hand carved and cast, adding a work of art and timeless style to your home furniture.

With the Custom Palette Program, you have over 700 designs available to choose from and customize to fit your home’s style.

Go bold with strong metallics and striking edges or soften a room with pastels and cream: the choice is entirely in your hands, and entirely made for you. Custom options also include leaf finishes and silver or gold edging stripes — perfect for a statement piece or accents to pull your home’s interior style into a cohesive vision.

Environmental Sustainability

Sustainability is vital in making sure that the environment is looked after in the long run. The longevity of a piece of furniture has a direct impact on the level of waste put back into the world. Theodore Alexander makes a pointed effort to source wood and finishing materials from sustainable sources, such as only using wood from suppliers who keep the conservation of the forest as a key pillar in their work. Not only does this help the environment, but it gives you peace of mind knowing that your new home furnishing addition is built to last.
