About Us E W Crowther Ltd (Upholsters and Cabinet Makers) is a family owned and run business based in Lincoln, Lincolnshire, United Kingdom, specialising in hand making the highest quality upholstered furniture, and also restoration and re-upholstery of period and antique furniture. Working here in our Lincoln workshop are Edward Crowther and his wife Jenny, together with a team of skilled upholsterers including Edward's son Ed Junior and a cabinet maker. Alongside our own work we run periodic courses in all aspects of upholstery, suited to beginners and experienced amateurs who wish to learn more about this fascinating craft. The furniture we make starts with a traditionally hand built frame. The finest English Beech hardwood is selected to be kiln dried and then cut, shaped, glued, screwed and doweled to ensure that lasting strength is built into each and every arch & curve. Only then do our upholsterers set to work. Crowthers Upholstery is unique. The way we make furniture is an uncompromising process, which has become an integral part of our reputation for excellence. Steel coil springs are fixed and hand-tied onto a jute webbed base. Natural fillings of horsehair and coir fibre are laid on Hessian and finished with specially prepared tailors' felt and cotton waddings. The overall comfort of each piece is of paramount importance and we therefore offer a selection of fillings from pure duck down, feather and down (our standard filling) to reflex fibre and feather wraps.
