Truly an American family tradition, OW Lee Company was established in 1947 in Pasadena, California
by Oddist W. Lee, as a fabricator of wrought iron gates and railings for the luxurious estates of Southern
California. Due to increased requests, Oddist began to design and sell wrought iron kitchenettes and
bistro sets for local furniture stores, which eventually lead to selling national furniture chain furniture stores
throughout the U.S.
Oddist’s son, Bob, joined the company in the 1950’s and in the 70’s and 80’s began to design and sell high
end patio furniture to patio furniture specialty stores throughout the United States, establishing OW Lee
Company as a well-known and reputable U.S. manufacturer in the ever-growing outdoor furniture industry.
Now, 75 years later, the third and fourth generations of the Lee family maintains O.W.’s commitment
to manufacturing quality furniture and fire pits in the United States. In 2021, OW Lee moved its
manufacturing facility to Comfort, Texas which is located in the beautiful Hill Country of Southcentral
Texas, northwest of San Antonio.
The OW Lee name stands for quality, innovation and design, and as a family owned and operated business,
pledge to continue the tradition started in 1947.
