Third-Generation Family Furniture Company
Our logo says it all: "Solid. Since 1947."
In 1947, our grandfather Charlie Tomkins began manufacturing furniture in the small town of Gallatin, Tennessee. He believed there was a market for solid wood bedroom and dining furniture made to the highest standards of quality, but offered at a value. Value to "Mr. Charlie" did not mean building cheap furniture or cutting corners. Instead, it meant building high-quality, solid wood furniture, but skipping all the expensive overhead and marketing of his competitors, instead relying on building a reputation by word of mouth. He traveled the country with a sample nightstand in the back of his station wagon, building the Cresent brand the old-fashioned way.
Almost 70 years later, many things have changed in the furniture industry. But some things have not--at Cresent when you give us a call , you can still speak to a member of the family that owns and operates Cresent. And we still focus every day on the same goal--making high-quality solid wood bedroom and dining furniture, and offering it at what we think is the best value in the industry.
So that is it--Solid Wood, Solid Value, Solid Family Ownership. Solid. Since 1947.
