Design Philosophy

A passion for inspired design. Uniquely beautiful materials. An elevated aesthetic. Crafted with the idea that great design tells a story.
Bernhardt is a luxury heritage brand that has long been associated with iconic furniture design. It has celebrated the unique craft of furniture making for generations, and families of artisans have passed down their skills, creativity and artistry within the company. Today, Bernhardt continues that legacy with a passion for inspired design.
“Great design is our guiding principle,” says Alex Bernhardt, Jr., the company’s President and CEO. He leads his creative teams in the design of extraordinary furnishings inspired by travel, architecture, artisan craftmanship and uniquely beautiful materials.
Bernhardt strives to create designs that are aspirational with a sense of place, constantly searching for inspiration in global culture, experiences, destinations and travel. It is this drive for inspiration that gives Bernhardt pieces a distinct presence and an international feel. Thoughtful details and an elevated aesthetic shape designs with a modern awareness and livable luxury, building on the idea that great design tells a story.
Brand Story

With a history that spans over 130 years, Bernhardt is a luxury heritage brand with a passion for creating inspired, iconic furnishings.
Founded in 1889 by John Mathias Bernhardt in Lenoir, NC, the company’s history began over 130 years ago as a timber company that also made bedroom furniture from the region's native white oak. Bernhardt developed a reputation for reliability and integrity, connecting with distributors and merchants in cities such as Chicago and New York.
The company continued to grow under the leadership of John Mathias’s son John Christian, left, and grandson Alex Sr., right. They exited the timber business and successfully grew Bernhardt through years of war, Depression and expansion. The company began producing upholstery, as well as wood furniture, and became well-known for taking care of its employees and supporting local communities.
Today, led by the family’s 4th generation with President and CEO Alex Bernhardt Jr., Bernhardt is one of the country’s largest family-owned furniture companies and a leading global furniture manufacturer still deeply committed to its people and giving back. With eight manufacturing facilities in North Carolina and six offices overseas, the company employs nearly 1,500 people worldwide.
