a style is born At the 1939 Chicago Housewares Show, we debut a 28-piece line of colonial-style furniture. It's named for a son of Vermont and an American hero: Ethan Allen.

Allen's name is the trademark of the furniture and housewares manufacturer, Ethan Allen Inc., which was founded in 1932 in Beecher Falls, Vermont.

The American Empire style of furniture design is known for its heavy, bold, and symmetrical construction, exaggerated curves, carved ornamentation, and the use of metals and fine woods for detail.

Ethan Allen is an excellent company. Overall, their upholstered furniture is similar in quality to a Bradington Young. Until 20 years ago, "high end"upholstered furniture was defined by its solid hardwood frames and 8 way hand-tied foundations.

Ethan Allen is best known for the capture of Fort Ticonderoga as the leader of the "Green Mountain Boys" and for his tireless - and controversial - efforts to make Vermont independent from the British Empire, other colonies, and perhaps even from the United States.

We also own and operate ten manufacturing facilities including seven manufacturing plants in the United States, two manufacturing plants in Mexico and one manufacturing plant in Honduras. Approximately 75% of our furniture is manufactured in our North American plants.

American interiors tend to prioritize a minimalistic, modern, and aesthetically driven approach. Most American designers focus on creating a visually uncluttered space, where the emphasis is often placed on clean lines and geometric shapes over plushness and functionality.
