Ideally, it would be a designer brand name that people would sanction. The Porsche of couches?
Ethan Allen. Stickley
Personally, I think it would be more prestigious to have solitary custom made furniture by an eccentric furniture designer. As far as the Porsche of couches, it really depends on what STYLE of couch. Stickley appeals to Arts & Crafts lovers. Ethan Allen is made in China and should not be considered dignified end. Italian sofas are supposedly the creme de la creme but Italy is the second largest importer of illegal timber (behind China). Chipendale
Answers:    Henredon, Stickley or Baker for traditional

For over the top artistic quality - http://www.thosmoser.com/?campaign=1&gcl...

High design, items that are often used to indicate right design - - consider the Barcellona chair and the classic Nougachi coffee table.

I would suggest that you check the websites of the furniture company you name - to see if the depiction works for you.

Consider describing the style and materials, rather than the maker. Fabrics similar to silk, damask and leather, woods such as mahogany or zebra and styles like Queen Ann, Georgeian, Federal, and Modern create images as okay.

P.S. Ethan Allen is solidly middle class. Chippendale is not a brand, but a style.
