About W.L.Landau Our family got its start as Ethan Allen dealers with a single handshake back in 1957 when Bill and Laurie Landau agreed to showcase the brand in their Early American furniture store. Over the years, thanks to its many loyal customers, “Landau’s” became known as a preferred destination for quality American furniture and also for its service-oriented approach to total home décor solutions. We invite you in to see for yourself how today’s Ethan Allen has moved well beyond its roots in Early American. We’re known globally for a wide range of products styled for modern living and a dedication to handcrafted quality. Landau Design Centers are filled with both inspiring vignettes and a talented staff of interior designers. We’ve long enjoyed a word-of-mouth reputation as the home of professionals skilled in the art of residential design. Floor plans, color schemes, fabric selection, project planning: That’s what we do. And yes, we make house calls. One of our best-kept secrets: Landau designers have access to hard-to-find trades through exclusive workroom relationships. Experienced local artisans measure, fabricate and install hand-tailored draperies and blinds. Our re-upholsery shop can give new life to a well-loved sofa. Broadloom specialists craft custom solutions for wall-to-wall and stairway applications. Another trade secret? Our designers partner with on-staff stylists to advise clients on the artwork, lighting and accessories that will best complete a project. We’ll even hang the artwork and place the accessories as needed. Our expertise is offered without charge to those who’ve found a connection with our products, and our competitive pricing makes the point that, with us, quality isn't out of reach. An added plus: the majority of our furniture is crafted in Ethan Allen’s own workshops in North America.
Now, before the camera started rolling, you were telling me a little bit about Ethan Allen and his reputation, not the nicest of guys. No, we always see him as this great hero of Vermont, but really he started off his life living in southern Vermont and somewhat of a thug, shall we say, beating up New Yorkers, sending them home, burning farmsteads so that his friends and his relatives who owned a lot of property could keep their land claims. And you said not the nicest guy, but he is highly regarded, very celebrated. Our studios are based in Fort Ethan Allen, so it's interesting that perception of who he was. Perception's a huge piece, and we're always looking back at history and we're looking ahead, and we're trying to say, And it'something that we really It's not just a veneration of a past. It's always reexamining that.
