Lewis & Co., formerly D A Lewis, is a family owned and operated furniture and homewares showroom located at 179 Blenheim Rd, Riccarton, Christchurch. The business traces its roots back to 1937, when a 12-year-old David Arthur Lewis started making letterboxes in his spare time to sell to Smiths City. In 1946, after completing his cabinet-making apprenticeship, he formed D A Lewis & Company.
Today, Lewis & Co. continues to proudly craft exquisite and enduring New Zealand made furniture on site in their Christchurch factory, offering customers the flexibility to select from a range of sizes, configurations, and fabric or leather choices. Alongside their own New Zealand Made Collection, Lewis & Co. stocks international brands including Artwood, a Swedish family business founded in 1969, Halo, established in 1976, Stressless recliners, and IMG.
Beyond furniture, Lewis & Co. offers a comprehensive drapery service specialising in an international collection of luxurious woven textiles, from relaxed linens and classic tailored stripes through to sumptuous silks, velvets and damasks. The showroom also offers a specialised interior design service for clients seeking professional advice on residential or commercial interiors, both within New Zealand and internationally. Plenty of parking is available at the Riccarton showroom.
Lewis & Co., formerly D A Lewis, is a family owned and operated furniture and homewares showroom located at 179 Blenheim Rd, Riccarton, Christchurch. The business's story begins in 1937, when a 12-year-old David Arthur Lewis started making letterboxes in his spare time to sell to Smiths City — a youthful entrepreneurial spirit that proved to be more than a flash in the pan.
In 1946, after completing his cabinet-making apprenticeship, David Arthur Lewis formed D A Lewis & Company. Today, still family owned and operated, Lewis & Co. continues to uphold that tradition of crafting exquisite and enduring furniture, made right here in New Zealand.
At the heart of the Lewis & Co. offering is its New Zealand Made Collection, manufactured exclusively in their Christchurch factory. This gives customers the flexibility to select a number of sizes and configurations, along with their choice of fabric or leather, for furniture designed to transcend fleeting trends. The collection spans signature styles including Refined Simplicity, Casual Comfort, Timeless Vintage, Understated Elegance and Industrial Chic.
Lewis & Co. also stocks a curated range of international furniture brands. Artwood, founded in Sweden in 1969, remains a family business that dares to go its own way with a passion for design and decor. Halo, established in 1976, uses the finest materials to develop distinctive in-house designs, while Stressless combines decades of comfort innovation to create what the brand calls the ultimate relaxation experience.
For movie lovers, Lewis & Co. offers a range of luxury motion sofas — cinema-style seats designed to keep you comfortable during every movie marathon, featuring immersive technology such as Bluetooth integration, wireless phone charging pads, USB charging ports, and fully reclining seating for the ultimate home cinema experience.
Beyond furniture, Lewis & Co. offers a comprehensive drapery service, specialising in an international collection of luxurious woven textiles — from relaxed linens and classic tailored stripes through to sumptuous silks, velvets and damasks. The showroom also supplies roller, honeycomb, wooden and composite, aluminium and vertical blinds.
