Truly an American family tradition, OW Lee Company was established in Pasadena, California, by Oddist W. Lee in 1947 as a wrought-iron gate manufacturer for the luxurious estates of Southern California. Due to increased requests from local patio furniture store owners, Oddist began to design and sell high-end patio furniture directly. In 1954, he incorporated under the name OW Lee Company. Oddist's son, Bob, joined his father after high school and continued in the business after Oddist retired.

Throughout the 1970’s, 80’s, and early 90’s, Bob Lee and his wife, Beverly, established OW Lee Company as a well-known and reputable manufacturer in the ever-growing outdoor furniture industry. In 2008, Bob and Beverly received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Casual Furnishings Association in recognition of their exemplary contributions to the casual furniture industry and to their communities.

The third and fourth generation of the Lee family maintains Oddist's commitment to quality more than 60 years later. Bob's daughter Terri and son-in-law Chris are continuing to build OW Lee into the premier name in casual furnishings. The OW Lee name stands for quality, and as a family-owned business, they have pledged to continue the tradition started in 1947.

For 2020, OW Lee has released 3 beautiful new collections we’d love to share with you: Belle Vie, Grand Cay and Marin.

The sophisticated style of Belle Vie is reminiscent of 19th century design that was popular among French aristocracy. With flowing lines in both the profile and back, the Belle Vie collection has a distinct Art Nouveau flair that lives up to its name, which means “beautiful view” in French. Belle Vie is a full-line collection that includes dining, deep seating and lounge options.

The eclectic look of the Grand Cay collection is inspired by the unique architecture of South Florida and the Caribbean which is influenced by Dutch, British and French colonial styles. The Grand Cay collection combines traditional lines with distinct beach bungalow elements creating a casual but elegant feel. Like Belle Vie, Grand Cay is also a full-line collection that includes dining, deep seating and lounge options.

The Marin collection takes inspiration from the Northern California coastal community of Marin County, located just north of San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge. Taking cues from both natural elements as well as modern design, Marin exemplifies the relaxed yet sophisticated nature of the area.  Like Belle Vie and Grand Cay, Marin is a full-line collection that includes dining, deep seating and lounge options in both cushion and our patent pending Flex Comfort seating.
