There is nothing quite like spending nearly a week at High-Point Market, whether spring or fall and taking in the stunning offerings in furniture lines, floor coverings, fabrics, wallcoverings, and accessories from the largest to the smallest manufacturer. At Market, finding beauty is a given while creativity and innovation are always a surprise… an almost mind-bending variety of unique creations whether new, old, or an innovative blend of the two.
Here, we offer just a peek at some of the beautiful offerings we either showed or discovered.
Curated Kravet
The tagline for Curated Kravet reads, Design. Click. Delivered®… And, as always, the more than a century-old industry leader lives up to that declaration.
From pillows to lampshades and from accent tables to framed prints and pillows, high-end accessories, and eye-catching décor add style to any space. By using Curated Kravet, you will be able to use subtle alterations in fabrics, finishes, and lighting that will make your client’s space elegant and unique.
Leathercraft Furniture
“I’m into leathuh.” (Thanks, Woody Allen)
What impresses us so much about the Leathercraft Furniture line is not just the incredible craftsmanship; or the high-quality leather they employ; or the handcrafted frames they build; no – we just love the way the line keeps growing. From beautiful fabrics to gorgeous accents and from the perfect trim to beautiful hardware, the designers at Leathercraft keep the line fresh and scrumptious.
And now, their NOW Program promises “30-day Shipping on Select Frames and Leathers”.
Jaipur Living
For 45 years now, the rugs, pillows, and accessories from Jaipur Living have been, and still are, hand-knotted, hand-tufted, hand-woven, power-loomed, and always, always beautiful.
Founded on the principles of dignity and fairness, Jaipur focuses on employing “untouchables” and subverting centuries-old practices and prejudices that had shunned the poor, women, and artists.
In fact, “The Jaipur System removes the middleman by employing a network of 40,000 artisans in more than 700 villages in India, ensuring quality and consistency.”
Kravet Furniture
Lee Jofa… Brunschwig & Fils… GP&J Baker… Donghia… Collection after collection, Kravet offers interior designers and furnishing dealers countless choices in high-quality, designer home furnishings. These choices include the best in designer furniture, fabrics, wallcoverings, rugs and carpeting, pillows, lighting, and innumerable accessories.
In short, there is no need or desire that the “Industry Leader to the Trade” in luxury home furnishings cannot satisfy, in fashion and style.
Well, we did mention fashion and style from Kravet, right? So, yeah, we doubled up on their images. (Someone got a problem with that?)

For those who were unable to attend High Point Market in April, and for those who did make the trip but were simply too busy to see all that was on display, we offer this short recap of the interior design trends that many are talking about.First, it must be said that the energy level was high at Spring High Point this year! As was the enthusiasm shown by designers, suppliers, manufacturers, and buyers; with everyone optimistic about the potential for growth during the remainder
of the year.Compact & Multifunctional – For consumers who are just short on space, products designed for small spaces – yet which serve a variety of functions enable people to maximize their spaces with furnishings that support their busy lifestyles. This need is being met with lightweight, yet durable pieces that present a narrower profile.Livable Luxury – A luxurious look and feel is fine for those who seek such, yet today’s consumer also wants to ensure their spaces a livable. Durable fabrics, forgiving woods, and low-maintenance finishes are being introduced in greater quantities in the brands and product lines that offer luxury.
Feminine Finery – The feminine edge is an emerging trend; offering flowing lines, lovely curves, floral patterns, and intricate details, a soft cushion on a sofa, the subtle curved front of a chest, and pinks and purples that bring a breezy lightness to every detail of the space in which they’re utilized.
Mix ‘n Match – For several seasons, manufacturers and retailers we’re playing it safe; fearing they could be left with a stockroom or warehouse full of inventory, showrooms were often filled with easy, and sometimes, boring options. This is beginning to change, as vendors are being bolder with their options and mixing materials, color and shapes with abandon.
