Historically, furniture manufacturing was a robust industry in the United States, employing thousands of American workers and producing some of the highest-quality furniture globally. However, around the turn of the 21st century, numerous American furniture manufacturers either ceased operations or significantly reduced their production capacity within the United States to capitalize on lower production costs abroad.
Currently, most furniture sold in the United States is produced overseas and imported from other countries. This global supply chain has been associated with increased carbon emissions, deforestation, illegal logging, and inhumane working conditions. Furthermore, imported furniture frequently exhibits inferior quality, resulting in more significant waste accumulation in landfills.
At Thurston, we're not just another furniture company. We’re passionate about crafting timeless, heirloom-quality furniture you’ll treasure for generations. Each piece is lovingly handcrafted from sustainably sourced North American woods, ensuring that we create beautiful and durable furniture that respects our planet. By sourcing materials within 500 miles of our workshop, we're taking meaningful steps to minimize our carbon footprint and promote a healthier environment.
We believe sustainability is not a buzzword. It's at the heart of everything we do, from our eco-friendly craftsmanship to the formaldehyde-free finishes produced in Southern Vermont. Every piece you bring into your home is a testament to our unwavering dedication to exceptional artistry and environmental stewardship.
When you carefully select a piece of furniture by Thurston, you’re not just buying furniture; you're making a positive impact on the world. You're supporting sustainable practices, reducing carbon emissions, and promoting a healthier environment. We invite you to explore our collections and discover the perfect piece that aligns with your values and style!
