Our History –

As a child I saw that my dad did what he loved. Working in his shop and making hand crafted furniture, for friends, family and his customers. He loved it. You would never know he was working. If you do what you love, you never have to work a day in your life. That’s one of many things I learned from my father. While our business has changed with the times, our core values have stayed the same. Like my dad, we continue our tradition of creating and preserving the memories of families, of furniture that’s that have been passed from one generation to another; gently restoring heirlooms and crafting contemporary creations out of rescued pieces. Our patience and attention to detail does not come at showroom prices- It shows through our expert craftsmanship. In the beginning this company (CCS) focused primarily on interior soft goods such as bedspreads, pillow shams, and dust ruffles. We evolved and Artistic Upholstery branched into upholstery of furniture, prompted in part by (our interior designers) (or Residential Interior Decorating professionals who trusted us) and imported cheap, and inferior made furniture. Many still find it cheaper to redo older pieces that were hand crafted by skilled carpenters that have remained stylish and durable over the years. Our current store with its extensive rich history of its own is located in La Habra, California with a small storefront and a versatile workshop to handle any size and complex work. AU is one of the few remaining family-owned American furniture manufacturers with its original ownership. Two generations of Aguirre men have led the company. I, Victor Aguirre, took over in 2010. We have seen the landscape of our industry change and with it a host of new challenges. As we see a decline in our trade, it only strengthens our resolve to continue what has always been a family tradition built on a love for producing quality work with love and care for our customers and their time honored furniture. It is that drive for quality that our customers have come to trust and expect that keeps them coming back and referring their friends and family to us.. Here’s to another 40 years!

    5 star review  Victor did a great job making a bench cushion to fit my window seat perfectly. He was able to make the angles fit perfectly based on a paper template that I gave him. He is professional, affordable, and delivered in a timely manner.

    5 star review  I had my dining room chairs reupholstered due to stains on the fabric. I also wanted extra padding added for additional comfort. I went to their showroom and met with Victor. He is not only a very pleasant person, but was completely honest about prices, availability, and durability of the materials. The work was done in record time and the results were much better than I expected. I definitely recommend Artistic Upholstery to anyone looking for a high quality and honest experience.

    5 star review  We highly recommend Artistic Upholstery! We found the perfect sectional for our 1950s midcentury home, and it was badly in need of a makeover (see the BEFORE photo-yuck). Victor did a fabulous job communicating timeframes, and I feel like he really understood the style of the piece. We absolutely will use Victor again for future projects!

  • 5 star review  Quality workmanship, reasonable pricing, friendly, professional, and Victor actually answers the phone! I cannot say the same about 3 other upholstery businesses I contacted. The sofa chair I brought to AU was beautifully reupholstered by Victor's team and now resides in a lovely townhome in the SGV.

    5 star review  We have a new built in kitchen nook at our house that was missing some cushions and so I was referred to Artistic Upholstery by my cousin @BRBmarket. I got in contact with them on a Monday, gave them all the details they needed, and picked up the cushions by that Friday! Price was on point and turnaround time was great and the cushions came out perfectly. Now I finally get to enjoy my kitchen nook 🙂

    5 star review  Victor did an amazing job restoring my late grandfather's reclining chair. The chair hold such fond memories for myself and my siblings and it is truly a gift that it has stayed in our family. The quality of Victor's work is truly an art and we couldn't be happier. Would 100% recommend Victor!

    5 star review  Artistic Upholstery did an amazing job transforming an old ottoman into a beautiful piece of furniture! I highly recommend Artistic Upholstery, they are PROFESSIONAL from the time they answered my call inquiring about upholstery to assisting me through the entire process, e.g. helping me carry my ottoman from my car, being patient with me selecting fabrics (they have so many selections),, educating me, keeping me up to date, etc. EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE! The CRAFTSMANSHIP on the ottoman was better then the original, the QUALITY and their expertise exceeded my expectations. The ottoman is now the center piece of the family room, Love It! Thank you Artistic Upholstery for your excellent customer service, HONESTY, and quality of work! Special thanks to Victor!

    5 star review  Victor at Artistic Upholstery has taken one of our neglected family heirloom, and transformed it into a piece of furniture our family is once again proud to display. We brought in my grandmothers antique chair not exactly sure what to expect, but Victor worked with us and make the experience incredibly pleasant. He worked within our budget, and restored it better than we could have imagined. My wife and I cannot say enough about the professionalism and quality of the work that Artistic Upholstery offers to its customers. We will be bringing back anything that needs upholstering back to this shop.

  • 5 star review  Victor went above and beyond to help me with what I needed, we had our cushions reupholstered in our pop up tent trailer, and they came out excellent. The way the print was on our cushions, there was some precision needed in sewing. It was a camping scene with animals, so the fabric had to be lined up just right, or it would have looked odd, we love them, and I can't stop bragging about them. Thank you so much, Artistic Upholstery and we will be back for sure! One happy customer and camper. Thank you, Rene

    5 star review  My experience with Victor at Artistic Upholstery was very good. Victor was very quick and responsive from my first quote request to follow up and delivery! My mom has 1 couch and 2 chairs gifted to her over 30 years ago as a house warming gift by her late Aunt and Uncle. These are very sentimental to her however they needed a fresh new look and some TLC! Victor did an amazing job and they all look and feel like New!!! I highly recommend doing business with Victor for any upholstering needs!
