Why J. Vanover & CO

From Our Family to Yours
J. Vanover & Co. Furniture is more than a showroom—it’s a statement. A statement that quality, style, and sustainability can coexist. By blending exclusive collections, American craftsmanship, and a green-forward philosophy, we create homes that are not only beautiful and enduring but also lighter on the earth.

Founders’ Vision

Joan Vanover and Andy Vanover stated:
“We founded J. Vanover & Co. on sustainable beliefs. Our goal is to help make the world a little greener, and to honor nature in everything we do.”

When we opened our first small store in Indian Harbour Beach in 2016, our vision was clear: to create a destination dedicated to solid wood furniture and American-made upholstery. From the beginning, we committed ourselves to offering sustainable, green products—crafted in the United States, by Americans, for Americans. 

We also believed strongly that homes should never be filled with “throwaway furniture.” Instead, we set out to provide heirloom-quality pieces—furniture designed to last for many years, not just a short season. This guiding principle ensures that every piece we bring into our showroom reflects both timeless craftsmanship and lasting value. 

What started in that small storefront has grown into a thriving business built on quality, sustainability, and American craftsmanship. This passion has guided us from day one and continues to shape every decision we make as we grow and serve our community

Why J. Vanover & Co.

In a city full of chain stores and big-box furniture warehouses, J. Vanover & Co. was created to be something entirely different: a hidden gem in Melbourne where design, craftsmanship, and personal connection come together.

1. Exclusive Collections You Can’t Find Anywhere Else

Every piece in our showroom is either custom-designed or carefully curated exclusively for J. Vanover & Co. Unlike mass-produced selections at chain stores, our signature collections— Cosmopolitan Loft, Intersection, Midtown, Metropolitan, and Uptown—exist only here. That exclusivity gives our customers something truly special.

2. Amish-Made, Modern Style
We’ve built a rare balance: solid-wood Amish craftsmanship paired with a modern, coastalurban aesthetic. While other stores may lean rustic or overly traditional, we bring heirloom construction into the present—blending timeless methods with clean lines, organic textures, and contemporary styling.
3. A Boutique Hidden Gem
We’re not a warehouse, and we’re not a chain. J. Vanover & Co. is a locally owned, designerled boutique where customers experience warmth, inspiration, and thoughtful styling the moment they step inside. Every display feels like a real home—not a generic furniture floor.
4. Customization & Personal Service
No one’s lifestyle is one-size-fits-all, and furniture shouldn’t be either. Customers here aren’t limited to what’s on the floor—they can choose wood species, finishes, fabrics, and layouts. Combined with our design expertise, that customization gives every customer confidence that their furniture is uniquely theirs.
5. Supporting Local & American Makers

We proudly showcase American-made, small-shop vendors who value sustainability and craftsmanship. Shopping with us means supporting real craftspeople and keeping your dollars close to home. Customers here aren’t just buying furniture—they’re investing in heirloom quality, sustainable products, made in America.

6. Designed for Florida Living
Our collections reflect the coastal lifestyle of Melbourne: light, airy, durable, and modern with a coastal twist. We design and style with Florida homes, climates, and personalities in mind— something cookie-cutter national chains can’t capture.

Beautifully Designed, Inside and Out

Every piece in our exclusive collections—from Uptown to Metropolitan—starts with a sketch by our co-founder, Joan Vanover. This personal touch ensures unique style and heartfelt quality in every detail.

Built to Last, Made with Heart:
We believe the most sustainable choice is a piece you’ll never want to replace.
  • Choose wisely: We select responsibly sourced hardwoods and safe, eco-friendly finishes for your home.
  • Build for life: Our furniture is crafted to become future heirlooms, reducing waste and honoring our planet.
