About Us

Lombards FurnitureBack in the 1940′s, Dennis Lombard had a vision of a store that would specialize in fine quality home furnishings and the best in interior design services. In 1949, he made that dream come true when Lombards opened for business. We’ve seen some changes over the 60 years we’ve been in business, but we’re still known for the same combination of beautiful furnishings and seasoned design staff.

When I came to work at Lombards in 1970, I was very fortunate that a man as visionary as Dennis Lombard became my teacher and mentor. As we worked together we found we shared the same commitment to building and maintaining that
outstanding reputation for service and quality.

“I’ve tried to maintain this commitment since I bought Lombards in 1976. And much to my delight, I’ve been rewarded with loyal customers that return to us time and again, and trust us to furnish their homes. That’s why l love Lombards.”

~ Fred Heer, President


“I love picking out the exciting, new, highest-quality pieces that are available on the market so we can present them to you at Lombards Fine Furniture. When I see the joy you feel when that new piece of furniture makes your home as beautiful and comfortable as you want it to be, I feel very proud to be part of that process!”

~ Judy Heer, Vice-President


“Lombards has been part of the family my entire life. So when I joined the business I assumed I would know a lot about furniture. Well, I was wrong! After visiting the Stickley and Harden factories in Syracuse, New York and Hickory Chair in Hickory, North Carolina it was obvious that I have a lot of learning to do. The amount of hand craftsmanship involved and customization that is available blew me away.”

~ Trent Heer, Vice-President

Trent Heer just joined Lombards after spending 20 years in sales mostly in Cincinnati, Ohio.


We are proud to have been selected by the National Home Furnishing Association as one of the top ten sellers of fine quality home furnishings in the Midwest. Lombards was the only store in Ohio to receive this distinction.
