As members of the SFC we support the “triple bottom line” of PEOPLE - PLANET - PROFITS. We accomplish this goal by increasing our purchases from suppliers that show continual improvement toward meeting the SFC’s high standards.

olive street: recycled chenilles

Have we told you lately how much we love the recycled chenille fabrics in our olive street line? They are as colorful and comfortable as they are eco-friendly. All of our olive street fabrics are made from 100% natural, renewable fibers including cotton, linen and recycled fabrics.

As with our painted furniture, the colors we have chosen for our upholstery assortment are inspired by life on Martha's Vineyard. Shown here: deep water, margarita, menemsha sunset, summer lovin', sand dune and nor'easter.
