Custom Built Patio Furniture That Designers Love!

Since nature has blasted through the Valley and kindly swept up our winter blues–with the blustery gusts and April Showers cleansing us from the dregs of the previous season–we can now look forward to appreciating the May Flowers in the lowlight of all those warm summer evenings. Of course, the best way to go about taking in the beauty of these blossoms is from an over-fluffed, cushioned seat of a fine patio chair. There is a big difference in experience between those plastic-cast, one-piece outdoor chairs and a well-kept adirondack–something that is not lost on the interior designers at Ennis Fine Furniture. Something we also know is that a piece of fine patio furniture is a different experience altogether even from the latter, a bigger league of comfort than what is available from off-the-shelf furniture makers and providers.

At Ennis, custom-built, custom-fabric furniture is our bread and butter. In business for over 75 years, our fine furniture knowledge and expertise is something of a renowned fact. For instance, if you’ve ever wondered who provides the furnishings for Boise’s premier golf courses; from Hillcrest to Spurwing, their in-house interior decorators flock to our showrooms to shop the latest look in patio furniture. Why? The old covenant, of course: their clients expect only the best. Providing products and services of this echelon means a diligent, hands-on approach and for three-quarters of a century, the Ennis family has made their namesake brand synonymous with this level of quality. Often handcrafted, American-made or at the very least stitched together with the finite precision of a craftsman, our fine furniture selection is not limited to just indoor spaces and upon visiting one of our locations, a member of our design staff will be happy to lead you to our outdoor arrangements.

And upon visitation, you’ll be exposed to our room staging know-how and you can rest assured that no detail is too small to mull over for our team. We can discuss the pros of weather-resistant wicker, the bold and warm tones of wooden benches, and of course the utilitarian ease and appeal of metal, all in various outdoor settings. So if traditional wicker doesn’t strike your fancy, we offer a crisp and clean metal and wood collection from Tommy Bahama, replete with chairs, dining set, and sofa. Each of the chairs and sofa offer fabrics that are completely customizable, a unique feature we are able to offer in nearly every product we sell thanks to our homegrown crew of master furniture craftsmen. Venture into a showroom today to discover the peerless quality of patio furniture that only Ennis Fine Furniture can provide!

Springtime Patio Season – Patio Fusion Curved Sofa

Springtime Patio Season

Patio Fusion Curved Sofa

The Treasure Valley during the shapeshifting of Springtime is truly a sight to behold; the dull, faded browns that have adorned the bleak of winter have turned coat to a vibrant palette full of emerald foliage and rolling landscapes. A jaunt through the foothills at this time of year reveals a sight more common to Wales or Ireland than to a place technically identifiable as a ‘high desert’. That eternal fresh feeling, the instinctual signal that summer won’t be long is finally upon us! In true Idahoan fashion, we tend to seize upon this opportunity with gusto, uplifting nearly every activity that has been shunned indoors due to the cold and throwing them back outdoors and in all directions. Idaho is commonly (and jokingly) referred to as ‘one giant park’ rather than a bonafide state, and after seeing hordes of people flock to trails, nature reserves, and waterways almost immediately once the weather warms, it’s easy to understand why.

Since we spend most of our summer months outdoors, we’ve grown accustomed to taking the occasional respite in the shadow of a backyard tree or by the babble of crystalline waters. Taking it all in from the comfort of your back patio is a pastime understood no better than by the interior design team of Ennis Fine Furniture, your local family-owned furniture store. In business and in the Valley since 1946, we’ve taken in many-a famous Idaho sunsets from a seat in only the finest hand-crafted, custom-built furniture that the Pacific Northwest has to offer. Whether it’s the great outdoors you’re looking to cull a sofa set around to enjoy the long summer evenings or a whole-home interior redoux that’ll change your entire look–including your patio–the renowned designers at Ennis can facilitate any and all of these needs. And even if it’s just a single piece you’re after, they’ll be more than happy to provide recommendations from our partners in craftsmanship.

Take the Patio Fusion Curved Sofa from Brown Jordan. A simple and understated look, with traditional lines that help draw the eye to the function of the piece over its form. It is a solid unit that loudly proclaims comfort with large, buoyant cushions and a cross-weave composite fabric structure that gives the body support while still offering a lightness invaluable to outdoor furniture. Perhaps its most defining feature, the curvature of the sofa allows for an entertainer’s delight, almost like a plush version of an amphitheater’s round, concrete pews. Since the curve of the sofa creates a wide-angle vantage point, you’ll no longer have to place two separate chairs to face either the foothills in the North or Southeast to the Big Sky Country; this one piece can do both! See how this sofa and other Fusion pieces from Brown Jordan stacks up with your outdoor look at any of our Ennis Showrooms, from Boise to the Tri-Cities to Spokane!
