The F.W. Lombard
Company is a manufacturer of contract furnishings, established in 1898.
In addition to our own design, we manufacture items designed outside,
but engineered and prototyped by the F.W. Lombard Company. We would
welcome the privilege of bidding or quoting you on your needs.
For the manufacturing
of our contract furnishings, the F.W. Lombard Company selected Ash,
one of the hardest, most durable woods available. Its natural beauty
and open grain appearance is enhanced by our five step finishing process,
whose top coat is institutional lacquer which is highly resistant to
stain and abrasions. We also manufacture in Cherry, Maple, Oak, and
Birch (call for pricing).
Construction All
of our bending is done with straight grain Ash, carefully selected and
bent under controlled conditions. Precompressed tenon construction (F.W.
Lombard Co. held the original patent on this process) reinforced with
steel pins at key stress points, insures a lasting construction. Our
chair, table, and casegood parts are kiln dried to a 6% moisture, and
glued with a modern electronic gluer.
