It’s shaping up to be a wild weekend at High Point Fall Market. From customizable kids chairs to statement-making daybeds, here are some must-see launches to keep you entertained on the flight to North Carolina.
Four Hands launched its inaugural hospitality series, spanning more than 1,000 styles designed and tested specifically for hotels, restaurants, bars and offices. Noteworthy newcomers include the Anderson bed, with a headboard accented in faux leather straps; the button-tufted, performance fabric–swathed Ellsworth sofa; and the sleek, poolside-ready Lorelie outdoor chaise.
Odette opened the doors to Curio Club, its new to-the-trade source for containers of European antiques. Available by appointment at the brand’s 20,000-square-foot Birmingham, Alabama, warehouse, the selection offers thousands of vintage furnishings procured from England, Italy and France, ranging from case goods to lighting, upholstered pieces and original artwork.
Élitis released Racines, its collaboration with Atelier Luma, the innovative design research lab at France’s prestigious Luma Arles institute. Inspired by ancient textures, the collection features three dozen traditionally crafted textiles made from bioregional materials, including plant-based pigments and merino wool, with standouts such as the Dans les Roseaux bayadere; and Les Bergers Endormis, with its thick, two-strand twisted yarn.
Cortney Bishop debuted her first-ever rug collection with Amadi Carpets. The collaboration features 14 handwoven designs composed of pure Tibetan wool or a silk-wool blend, including the graphic floral Magnolia, the zigzagging Poppy, and the flame stitch–evoking Emelie.
To celebrate the “Fulcrum” exhibition at Manhattan’s Host on Howard, Sklo dropped a 12-piece lighting collaboration with New York interiors firm AvroKO. Handblown by skilled artisans in Czechia, the collection explores the interplay of light and shadows, and includes highlights such as the double-shaded Prince pendant and the opaque-glass Perla sconce.
Armadillo tapped Barcelona-based multidisciplinary artist Carla Cascales Alimbau for the Gaia collection. The collaboration boasts six tactile rugs—woven from materials such as wool, silk, jute and linen—including the rippling Marea, the ultra-low-pile Alma, the striated Cirrus, the subtly grid-like Aerie, the crosshatched Palloza, and the fringe-trimmed Willow.
Calico Wallpaper unveiled a fresh pair of painterly wallcoverings called Philia and Arcadia. Offered in seven distinct colorways, the first features gradient hues and a rhythmic watercolor motif, while the second showcases an array of enchanting botanical silhouettes across a dreamy ombre backdrop.
Nickey Kehoe called on Connecticut-based ceramic studio Dumais Made for its latest collaboration. The limited-run line offers seven whimsical stoneware designs, with head-turners such as the hand-painted Pattern Pocket table lamp, the burgundy glazed Bar tray, and the Cuvette pendant with its etched clay-covered shade.
Nestig teamed up with New York lifestyle brand Hill House Home for a limited-edition collaboration. The collection reimagines the former’s two monogrammable Mini children’s chairs, Hug and Hop, in a pair of the latter’s bestselling prints, Botanical (in blue) and Trellis (in pink).
Helena Clunies-Ross’s Calma collection is on full display at Room in New York. First presented at Studio Athena Calderone’s The Atelier alongside a selection of one-of-a-kind vessels by ceramist Ilona Golovina, the series boasts six chic furniture pieces punctuated by architectural silhouettes and eye-catching finishes, including a high-contrast daybed with light linen upholstery and a blackened walnut frame, and an art deco dining table with a striking aged-brass inlay.
