The hallmark of luxury upholstery. Each coil spring is tied with eight separate twine knots — front-to-back, side-to-side, and on both diagonals — producing a uniform sit that conforms gently to the body. Machine-tied or sinuous-wire springs cannot replicate the resilience and longevity of hand-tying.
In Practice
At Extra Touch Upholstery, eight-way hand-tied springs is part of the standard vocabulary of every commission — discussed openly with clients during the specification phase and documented in the written scope before any work begins. Whether you are restoring a family heirloom, commissioning a new custom piece, or refreshing a Lake Tahoe estate, this is the level of detail you should expect from a serious atelier.
