Len Vella

lencraftIt all stated back in 1968 as a furniture upholstery cutter at Rest–ezi furniture in Smithfield.

In 1970 I became a foreman and in charge of 42 workmates out of 105 people. We produced  120 lounge suites a day.

After 11 years at Rest-ezi I went to Garrick furniture as a foreman and designer of new furniture. Then in March 1984, I started my own business as Lencraft Furniture upholstery in South Wentworthville.

We then moved to a new factory in prospect in 2004, and today after 45 years in the furniture industry our commitment and dedication can be seen in every piece of furniture we re-upholster or design and make. So we welcome any and all of your restorations and  custom made design and fabricate  jobs.

Len is a craftsman in custom made lounges for both commercial and domestic jobs, remodelling and re-upholstering your favourite lounge, Jason chair and dining suites.
