As we enter a winter like no other where the theme is “stay at home,” many of us are realizing that our homes are in serious need of some comfort and/or function… and we need it fast! Enter Walter E. Smithe Furniture’s Quick Ship Collection. Whether it’s custom upholstery, case pieces, or finishing touches, we’ve got you covered, and we can get it to you in under a month. If you’ve recently been searching for furniture, you may think that you just misread that last sentence, however, you read that correctly- we can get you high-quality (in some cases even custom) furniture in under a month.
As it has with many other industries, Covid has caused a massive ripple effect in the furniture industry’s production and supply chains as well as an increased consumer demand for home furnishing leading to a huge furniture shortage. Our team recognized this struggle and has sourced high quality product as well as partnering with American factories that will prioritize our clients’ Quick Ship custom orders. One such factory is right here in Chicago!
No matter what the category- living room, bedroom, dining room, home office, or smaller spaces like entryways, we have beautiful, high-quality options. In need of some inspiration? Here are some of our favorite Quick Ship rooms!
The Chill Living Room
This room was practically designed with Chicago Januarys in mind! With its down blend bench cushions and no shortage of throw pillows and back cushions, the Chill sectional was built for curling up with a cozy blanket and watching tv, scrolling social media, or taking a nap. We show it in a beautiful white Worry Free fabric, but this sectional is custom order, so you can select the fabric of your choosing and have it custom built and delivered to your home in under four weeks. We’ve paired it with our classic Eaton chair- that can also be custom built quick, as well as tables and accessories that can be delivered in less than a month.

The St. Clair Bedroom
These are the days of hitting snooze. No rushing to make the train or dropping the kids off at school… most days, there is no place we need to be, so sleeping in might even be a possibility. No better time to give yourself a beautiful and serene bedroom to enjoy day and night! Our St. Clair bed has a handle of fabrics of all colors to choose from and it’s made locally in Chicago for an extra quick delivery. We love it with our Justin nightstands- the soft finish and iron legs and hardware balance so nicely with the shelter bed. Those Justin nightstands are stocked locally, so we can also get them to you fast. Click here to shop the St. Clair Bedroom.
The Bristow Dining Room
Our Bristow dining collection is a best seller for many reasons- we have three finish options, two round dining table sizes as well as three rectangular sizes, and matching dining chairs and sideboards. With a clean, modern trestle base, its versatile & timeless design allows it to work in so many different style situations and it can be dressed up for a very formal dining room or dressed down for a more casual kitchen eating area. Quite possibly the best part about it? We stock it locally so it’s part of the Walter E. Smithe Quick Ship Collection! Click here to shop the Bristow dining room.
