About The Company
What exactly do we mean when we say Furniture with a Soul™? At Nadeau, we are dedicated to enhancing our customers'​ lives by consistently discovering and offering unique, handcrafted and affordable furniture that brings beauty, warmth, and a bit of authentic, ethnic culture into their homes. Furniture with a Soul™ also means Nadeau pieces are: • Never mass-produced • Never what you'd find at a large chain or big-box store • Never cookie-cutter or flavor-of-the-month • Never "assembly required"​ • Never boring We travel abroad extensively throughout the year to find, design and procure handcrafted, solid wood furniture with the most functional styles, innovative finishes and materials built to last. Variety is a priority for our buyers, and it's evident in our 6000+ different pieces, many of which are one-of-a-kind designs. Because we present a distinctive selection of ever-changing inventory, there's no waiting the usual six or eight weeks for an order to arrive - you can take your Nadeau purchases home with you the same day! Eliminating exorbitant shipping costs, along with our unique approach to supplier relationships and distribution, keeps our pieces extremely affordable. Headquartered in Santa Monica, California, Nadeau currently has over 30 retail storefronts. Nadeau stores can be found in over 15 states and seven of the top 10 US major markets including New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Washington DC, Atlanta and Houston with more growth planned.
