ABOUT THAYER COGGIN

Thayer Coggin is a family-owned furniture company founded in 1953 by World War II veteran Thayer Coggin. We blend modern design with luxury craftsmanship, producing furniture that embodies elegance, comfort, and timeless style. Our focus is on handmade pieces that bring form and function together with a deeper purpose: emotional satisfaction. Since 1953, collaborations with visionary designers have shaped a catalog of some of the most distinctive furniture designs in the world.

Handmade in North Carolina

Founder Thayer Coggin and designer Milo Baughman collaborated from 1953 to 2003, creating a catalog of classic modern designs. Many of those designs remain in production alongside contemporary works from Rick Lee, Ransom Culler, Guy Hill, Sean Daliege and other designers. Our furniture is designed to inspire, comfort, and connect emotionally. Our original designs are handcrafted with kiln-dried hardwoods, premium materials and custom upholstery. Each upholstered item is made to order in our High Point, North Carolina workshops. Thayer Coggin furniture is bench-made; that is, an upholstered piece is upholstered by a single craftsperson from start to finish. Related sectional modules are upholstered by the same craftsperson, ensuring continuity, consistency, and careful attention to detail.

Choose from hundreds of in-house fabrics and leathers, or supply your own material for review. Wood and metal finishes are available on select designs, and modular seating offers a range of configurations. Available options vary by product.
