In furniture-making, the upholstery frame of a piece of furniture gives the structural support and determines the basic shape^[1] of the upholstered furniture. The frame may be a basic piece of wooden furniture before it is upholstered. Like a finished piece of furniture before the upholstering, the frame establishes the final quality, including its durability, and limits the final design, padding, cushioning, or cover.
