Our Story

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 O.W. Lee Company as a well-known and reputable manufacturer in the ever-growing casual 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 generation of the Lee family honored their parents' and grandparents' original vision, continuing the company’s long-standing commitment to quality and craftsmanship. Through family leadership, O.W. Lee Co. remained true to the values established in 1947, preserving a legacy that would inspire future generations.

Today, the third and fourth generations of the Lee family continue to carry forward the legacy of O.W. Lee Co., combining a deep respect for the company’s heritage with fresh ideas for modern outdoor living. Together, they uphold the family’s commitment to craftsmanship, quality, and innovation, ensuring that each piece reflects the same care and attention that has defined the brand for decades. Their shared passion keeps the Lee tradition thriving, bridging past and future with every collection.
