Furniture and furnishings Direct!
Since 1986 Material Effects has developed and maintained relationships with suppliers of well designed and well made furniture, fabrics and accessories. However, purchasing furniture and furnishings for your home is about more than choosing a quality product. At Material Effects it is our job to help you choose items that suit your lifestyle as well as your decor, that will stand the test of time and that will fit well into your rooms (too many times I've been called in to help arrange a room around a sofa that is simply too big and should never have been sold to the client).
Avoid expensive mistakes. Be inspired by the fabrics and wallpapers, curtain tracks and rods, blinds, sofas and hard furniture, bedding, throws, cushions and lamps from the following manufacturers. Then, with the confidence that we recommend the quality let us help you to make the best of your home with the perfect item at our Furniture and Furnishings Direct price.
Beautiful furnishings perfect for you at substantially lower prices.

4 Simple Steps to your own designer furnishings
1. Choose your furnishings.
Either advise us of your choices or use our Nelson showroom by appointment. Check out the suggested ranges below to make your choices.
2. Provide us with the details.
If we are to have a sofa made for you, tell us the name of the supplier, and the name and size you require, along with the details of your fabric choice. For a readymade item, like a shelf unit, tell us the name of the supplier, and the name, colour and size you require. We will then provide you with a price.
3. Place your order
We will set things in motion and advise you when your item is ready. Usually this takes 2-6 weeks.
