Testimonials

Let me just say this about New York Custom Furnishings: Perfection is their standard practice, not a lofty goal. They have never let a piece of furniture leave their factory without it being the finest example of upholstery that you have ever seen. They are easy to work with, courteous, and very prompt. I highly recommend them!

I’ve been working with Ephraim Stern and NY Custom Furnishings since the day I founded my business in 2013. Ephraim and his team pour their heart and soul into each custom piece, always made by hand, and the quality shows. He has helped me more than he knows, and has been there when I really needed him. Even with the exceptional quality that most NY area vendors offer, I can’t recommend NY Custom Furnishings highly enough. Very much looking forward to many, many, many years of exciting collaborations to come.

I have been working with NY Custom for many years. I consider them part of my core team because they contribute to almost every one of our projects. The results are always beautiful and they are an absolute pleasure to work with for me and my team. I’m looking forward to many more years of collaborating.

I love working with Ephraim – he’s always professional and goes the extra mile to ensure I’m happy. He definitely understands upholstery and I rely on him to collaborate on details with me to make each piece the best it can be. We’ve worked together for 10 years and its always a pleasure!

Susan Bednar Long | S. B. Long Interiors

For the past decade or more we have considered NY Custom Furnishings our secret weapon. We rely not just on their meticulous craftsmanship and dependable lead times, but on their enthusiasm for tackling challenging details. From creating a monster size curved sofa based on our play-doh model to fitting new channel-tufted covers on unforgiving mid-century dining chairs to making samples of seat cushion inserts for a client to test, they have unfailingly delivered great results with good humor. We can’t recommend them highly enough.

Ephraim Stern brings an Old World command of the art of the upholstery that is rarely seen in America. His seasoned and exact understanding of the proper proportions and materials that each piece requires translates into furnishings that are marvels to behold and delights to sit upon. I’m wild about NY Custom’s work.
