Cresent is proud to be one of the founding members of the Sustainable Furnishings Council (SFC). SFC is a new industry organization formed to promote sustainable practices within the home furnishings industry and raise awareness among consumers and buyers.
As a family business that manufactures home furnishings, we are aware of the threats to the environment that our industry inflicts. Our family is working to expand our sustainable practices and is committed to continuous improvement in all of our activities. Specifically, we are working with our finish suppliers to use coatings with low emissions (VOCs and VHAPs) and our lumber vendors to ensure an increasing percentage of sustainably forested timber is available for our products.
All of our furniture is built to the same time-honored specifications upon which our company was founded. We utilize only the finest furniture hardwoods and veneers for case construction. We feature mortise and tenon joinery, dovetailed drawer construction, dovetailed wood on wood drawer guides with safety stops and custom designed hardware. All of our finishes are applied by hand and protected with two coats of furniture lacquer.
