History
The evolution of Lorts...
The company originally produced moderately
priced furniture, distributed to retail furniture
stores including Levitz and J.C. Penney. The
majority of the items, fashioned in an Early
American style and large-scaled, included
dining tables, occasional tables and roll-top
desks. Evolving over more than twenty years,
Lorts in 1990 began producing a stylized
collection of furniture distributed through the
finest higher-end furniture stores and designers
across the country. Beginning with rustic, country
styles, Lorts soon experimented with different
finishes. Several other manufacturers answered
to an increased demand for finish options, but
their prices were astronomical.
Lorts responded to customers wishing for

designer style and flexibility at reasonable
prices. Soon word spread about the company
producing hardwood furniture in several premium finishes at prices far below similarly
styled product. Gradually, the product line developed and now includes dining
furniture, stools and game sets, occasional pieces, bedroom furniture, armoires, and
home office and wall units.
Lorts makes customization a reality...
Lorts prides itself on finding a niche in the market. Homeowners desire the ability
to create furniture themselves by customizing finishes and sizes, and Lorts strives to
make this a reality. From size changes on items currently in the Lorts line to new ideas
sketched out on a napkin, Lorts allows customers to make each piece unique. In
a world where each furniture piece tends to look like every other, Lorts’ customers
can create furniture personalized to each individual need and style at a value
unsurpassed within the industry.
