Painted Bison Leather Sofa

Painted Bison Leather Sofa

Introducing the Painted Bison Leather Sofa, a bold statement piece that blends American-made craftsmanship with true Western artistry. Meticulously handcrafted in the USA and upholstered in rich saddle tan full-grain leather, this sofa is hand-finished to bring out a warm, timeworn patina—subtle highs and lows in the hide that only get better with age.

Built for real living, the Painted Bison Sofa features an inviting, lounge-worthy profile with generously cushioned seating that lets you settle in fast and stay awhile. Clean, tailored lines keep the silhouette refined, while classic details—hand-applied nail tacks, striking leather seams, and substantial wood block feet—ground the piece in heirloom quality.

What sets this sofa apart is the hand-painted bison stampede artwork by renowned artist Wayne Parmenter. Wrapping across the outer arms and sweeping along the back, the scene captures the raw momentum of the plains: powerful bison in motion, layered in earthy siennas, charcoals, and ember-like highlights, with a rider cutting through the herd in a cinematic burst of movement. It’s not just decoration—it’s a story painted into the leather, turning the sofa into a functional canvas that commands attention from every angle.

About the Artist: Wayne Parmenter’s Artistic Odyssey Nurtured by the winds of Lake Erie, Wayne Parmenter’s journey began in Pennsylvania, where a childhood spent hiking, hunting, and crafting brushes from sheepdog hair sparked a lifelong connection to nature. Awarded a full scholarship to the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, he became a nationally recognized illustrator, working with Woolrich, FedEx, and even the White House. His excellence earned him induction into the Society of Illustrators. Now based in Hickory, North Carolina, Wayne paints on leather chairs, transforming them into canvases alive with animals, mountains, and earthy tones. His emotionally driven style, shaped by warm colors and bold forms, reflects his love of travel, the outdoors, and the untamed spirit symbolized by the Buffalo tooth he wears. At 60, Wayne remains vigorous in body and artistry, recently collaborating with Remington Tanner Furniture and Adobe Interiors to expand his work into majestic depictions of elk, buffalo, and horses. Supported by his wife Anna and their three children—Carson, Katie, and Mara—Wayne continues to explore themes inspired by the wilderness, from bears to the Blue Ridge Mountains. His goal goes beyond art: Wayne strives to forge emotional connections, offering each piece as a journey into the wild.

If you want a luxury leather sofa that feels authentic—not mass-produced, not generic—the Painted Bison Leather Sofa delivers: premium full-grain leather, heirloom construction, and original hand-painted Western art in one unforgettable centerpiece. At Adobe Interiors, we create the furniture, and you create the memories.

Leather Description: This is a full grain aniline leather tanned in a historic leather producing region of Italy using English hides. The century old tannery prepares this leather article by applying a hot wax, then turning the hides in old wooden tanning drums overnight to soften the natural fibers and impart it with a remarkable suppleness. The leather is then upholstered in its "crust form" on the furniture in North Carolina, After the furniture is made our leather artisans apply a multi step hand rubbed Patina using the same waxes and pigments used in Italy. Performing this process on the actual finished piece allows our artisans to develop a unique Patina, composition, and overall essence that creates a piece of furniture that has uniqueness, character and style that matches the individual who's selecting it. This leather imparts the feeling of a softer, well broken in leather one might find on a decades old chair discovered in a French country estate or the Parisian flea market. The leather is brand new from our Artisans hands... without the aging issues that sometimes come from the hands of time. Truly a unique, hand-made article in an era when only companies committed to the highest standards lavish this sort of attention and time to unique American made furniture.
