The Paine Furniture Company was an American furniture manufacturer established in the 19th century.
The Paine Furniture Company was founded in Boston, Massachusetts in 1835 by Leonard Shearer. Boston in 1835 was a small city, but furniture production was a growing industry which Shearer recognized.
Despite having operated for a great many years, it was 1872 when he opened an enormous Paine Furniture Company shopping centre, and continued to expand the company’s manufacturing capabilities until his retirement.
By 1914, Paine Furniture Company was operating from a ten-story showroom and factory. The company is still owned and run by the Shearer family, though the name has since changed to Right Price Furniture.
Antique Paine Furniture Company pieces can reach large sums of money at auction.
The Paine Furniture Building is an historic commercial building at 75-81 Arlington Street in Boston, Massachusetts. It occupies the entire block between St. James and Stuart Streets, and has a prominent position on Park Square.
The ten-story building was constructed in 1914 in a Classical Revival style, to a design by Densmore and LeClear. It was designed to house the showrooms, offices, and manufacturing facilities of the Paine Furniture Company, at one time the largest furniture company in New England. The company sold the building in 1989. It has steel frame construction, and is faced in limestone.
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002. It is currently a pending Boston Landmark. Suffolk University’s New England School of Art and Design currently occupies part of the building.
