Save the Date: Thursday December 18th
5:00 - 7:00pm Holiday Happy Hour and Artist Reception

 

Mark your calendar and join us for a fun and festive celebration!

In a special exhibition curated by Joe Rowand Fine Art, new featured artist Peter Butler will be here to help us toast the holidays. Peter is a lifelong competitive swimmer who swam at UNC in the 1970s, and he believes water to be a perfect world where "we are somehow closer to our own nature."

Viewing Peter's paintings feels like floating. His work is vibrant, merry, and bright - a perfect antidote to the hustle and bustle of this busy time of year.

New Furniture in Our Showroom...and More to Come

 


Come experience David Adjaye's Washington Skeleton and Washington Skin Chairs for yourself! In copper, the Washington Skeleton chair is intended to patina over time so no two chairs are exactly alike.
      
Jaime Hayon's Analog Table encourages you to gather around with friends and family, light some candles, and enjoy a great meal. Our Charles Pollock Sling Chair has also arrived, in an exquisite cinnamon cowhide and black portofino leather combination, great for an executive office. And we have Saarinen's Womb Chair back in stock, just in time to curl up with a good book.

We love to work with the Trade! Most of our furniture is made-to-order and equally smart in both residential and contract settings. Architects and Interior Designers, please get in touch to inquire about our Trade Professionals Program. 


Early 2015 showroom arrivals will include an Egg Chair, Drop Chairs, Coffee Tables and 60th Anniversary Series 7 Chairs from Fritz Hansen, multi-colored lacquered Wishbone Chairs from Carl Hansen & Son, a locally-made console table from Elijah Leed, and much more!

Haand is Here



We're honored to partner with local talent Haand as the online retailer for their gorgeous new Ripple Series porcelain tableware. Intended to carry memories of meals shared on them the way ripples in water reflect the space they moved through, these uniquely beautiful pieces will help you set an unforgettable table.
