Eight-Way Hand-Tied In this method a craftsman hand ties each coil spring to the other springs and sofa frame with twine. The twine crosses the frame from front to back, from side to side, and across both diagonals, thus creating the “eight ways”.

Sinuous Springs In this method, two-dimensional “S” shaped wired is run from the front rail to the back of the seat, spaced every few inches. Support wires cross laterally and provide additional stability and support... This spring system offers a somewhat softer seat and can be used in upholstered furniture that sits lower to the ground.

Note: Sinuous Springs are utilized on all PB upholstery.
