New from Lee Jofa – The 200th Anniversary Collection

One of the few recognizable names in luxury home furnishings that are older than Kravet happens to be Lee Jofa, one of the more prominent lines so dearly held within the Kravet family of brands. To celebrate this unprecedented milestone, the Lee Jofa 200th Anniversary Collection presents a full eight generations of industry-leading luxury and craftsmanship, along with freshly imagined traditional designs.

From iconic and lasting patterns to fresh, not to mention refreshed, fabrics and wallcoverings, the collection spans and blends the familiar with the new in ways that only Lee Jofa can imagine.

Happy 200th Anniversary, Lee Jofa

Mentioned prominently in an article from our friends at Business of Home, we get an enticing peek at what this quintessential brand is bringing to the home furnishings market.

“In honor of its bicentenary, Lee Jofa dropped the 200 Collection. The celebratory series spans more than a hundred SKUs in a range of categories, including 16 archival textile patterns re-imagined in fresh new colorways, 69 sophisticated area rugs, and furniture pieces ranging from a fully upholstered English arm sofa to a provincial-style cocktail table with a scalloped apron.” (emphasis added)

With further guidance taken directly from the Kravet website, we offer the following about the collection: new from Lee Jofa:

“Discover reimagined favorites and archival treasures amidst the iconic offering of textiles that showcase the heritage of the storied brand.

Long-standing favorites such as the hand-blocked Tree Of Life and Hollyhock enjoy new colorways and will be released as printed wallcovering for the first time in the forthcoming wallcovering collection.

Coordinating pillows, handsome furniture, and perfectly complementary carpeting round out the robust anniversary collection, encouraging grand designs brimming with Lee Jofa.”

Always one of our favorite lines, thanks in large part to the traditional yet forward-looking vision and unparalleled quality, of their textiles, we are delighted to continue representing the Lee Jofa line, and to feature the new 200th Anniversary Collection.

Designer Fabrics, Wallcovering, and Trimmings Make a Space

It should probably go without saying that designer fabrics are critical to the success of a design project; not to mention the lasting enjoyment of the homeowner client. Truly, the right fabrics in the right locations can make all the difference in a space.

Whether we’re talking about upholstered furniture, wallcoverings, draperies, accent pillows, or furniture and wall trimmings, fabrics add color, texture, and depth to any space when used to the greatest advantage. Of course, there is also the fact that such fabrics last, with a life expectancy that will generally outlast most homeowner’s love for them; meaning they will return for another remodel before their designer fabrics have outlived their usefulness.

Lee Jofa Fabrics

Two and a half centuries of textile expertise have shaped this exclusive brand.  Lee Jofa can trace its history back to the early 19th century with the partnership of Johnson and Faulkner (shortened to Jofa fabric) importing fine decorative fabrics to the US including many famous designs that remain with the company today. With its acquisition in 1965 by Arthur H Lee & Sons, famous for groundbreaking weaving techniques, an alliance was formed producing fabrics considered some of the world’s most luxurious.

From dramatic to playful and from startling to welcoming, the look, feel, and quality of Lee Jofa designer fabrics can – and will – please any interior design client.

GP & J Baker Weaves & Embroideries

GP & J Baker, holder of the Royal Warrant since 1982, enjoys an international reputation for delivering magnificent fabrics, wallcoverings, and trimmings exceptional in quality and creative innovation. Founded by two enterprising brothers in 1884, current collections which range from stunning translations of designs from its renowned archive to sparkling signature prints, weaves, and embroideries, ensure that GP & J Baker offers a unique and stylish approach to both traditional and contemporary interiors.

While it may seem counter-intuitive, fabrics determine to look and feel of a particular space even before paint color, furniture design, and floor coverings. As integral parts of the Kravet family of brands, Lee Jofa fabrics and GP&J Baker fabrics, wallcoverings, and trimmings, offer nearly limitless choices for sharp designers to please their clients.

TD Fall & Co represents both lines of fabrics while Ted offers consultation on everything from the choice of colors to textures to coordination with other aspects of a remodeling or design project. Simply… Get in touch with TD Fall today.
