St. Thomas’ Revamped Landmark Offers Leading Edge Designs

“It still happens about once a week. Someone walks into Jennings Furniture & Design in Downtown St. Thomas expecting to see the conventional showroom that was there for decades. Instead, she sees a modern store full of designs homeowners might otherwise go to Toronto to view.” -- Christopher Clark, Lifestyle January/February 2011.

Jennings long history in St. Thomas began in 1885, owned and operated by the Jennings family for four generations. In 2009, Jennings Furniture was purchased by Renée Carpenter, an in-store designer working at Jennings Furniture for three years prior.

As the new owner of the new Jennings Furniture & Design, I can attest to the fact that the store is not even close to the same anymore. All three floors of the store have been newly renovated and transformed into the design showcase that it is. The 126-year-old building, comprising of over 24,000 square feet, continues to support a full line of quality upholstery and leather sofas, chairs, chaises, ottomans, and sectionals, dining and bedroom furniture, including juvenile. Room Inspirations have been designed on all levels to help our clients visualize the look in their home.

But, Jennings is much more than just a furniture store. Also included are bed linens, mattresses, drapery, area rugs, lighting and accessories. A growing portion of our new business is now custom work and design. Jennings can custom order to meet your particular needs. A large Design Resource Area has been created within the centre of the store, providing thousands of fabric and leather samples and other items for homeowners and interior designers. With four interior designers/decorators on staff to service our clientele, we keep this area humming! You no longer have to go to Toronto to find the unusual. If we don’t have it, we will do our best to find it.

Jennings offers free delivery to almost anywhere in SW Ontario – just another way to continue the superior customer service that we have been known for over 126 years! Our quality and service speaks for itself. Come experience the Jennings difference!
