World-Class Indoor Furniture – Brazilian Walnut by Jensen
Heirloom Quality. In Stock in Champaign.
If you know furniture, you know Jensen — the global leader in ultra-premium indoor and outdoor furniture. We carry their solid Brazilian Walnut (Ipe) and Grade-A Teak lines — pieces designed for luxury homes, yachts, resorts, and estates.
In our Champaign showroom, you’ll find more Jensen indoor furniture in stock than anywhere else in the Midwest, including sofas, sectionals, loveseats, daybeds, dining tables, benches, chairs, coffee tables, and end tables — in dining, counter, and bar height. Much of our inventory is ready to take home, especially dining sets and wood-based seating. For custom finishes, we offer ultra-durable commercial-grade Sunbrella fabrics and premium ultraleather options, available with lead times of just a few months.
This is not showroom filler. It’s heirloom-grade furniture designed to outlive you, with craftsmanship and durability that most “fine furniture” stores simply can’t touch.
