What Sets Bernhardt Furniture Apart in Design and Style

For more than 130 years, Bernhardt—based in North Carolina—has earned a loyal following among designers and homeowners. Its secret? Livable luxury.

Expect calming color palettes, upscale materials, clean silhouettes, and thoughtful finishes. But unlike some high-end lines, Bernhardt never feels overly delicate or cold.

📌 Takeaway: Bernhardt delivers elegant, approachable style designed for real homes—not just showrooms.

How Durable Is Bernhardt Furniture?

Quality is where Bernhardt really justifies its price.

• Case goods (like dressers, tables, and cabinets) are built with engineered hardwood cores and premium veneers to prevent warping or cracking—especially helpful in humid climates like Kansas and Missouri.

• Upholstered pieces feature:

  • Strong internal frames

  • Stain-resistant performance fabrics

  • Soft leathers and durable textiles

  • Cushions that retain their shape

📌 Takeaway: This is furniture built to last. With regular care, many pieces will look great for 15–20 years or more.

Can You Customize Bernhardt Furniture?

Yes—within collections. While it’s not a fully custom line, Bernhardt offers a generous range of personalization, especially for sofas, sectionals, and chairs.

✔ Choose your fabric or leather
✔ Select wood finishes or metal accents
✔ Adjust layouts and cushion fill (in select models)

📌 Takeaway: You’ll get a high-end look tailored to your style—without the delays or cost of full custom.
