Nice collection - but I can tell you right now, it's not cheap.

Brand new? That sofa looks like it was designed by Billy Haines, the dresser looks like Dorothy Draper, the coffee table looks like a Paul Mccobb, the high back armchair looks like it stepped out of restoration hardware.

Nice-but nothing original at all-these have all been done, at all kinds of price points..

I'm doing a post about this on Monday. The line is nice, but I was especially wowed by the jewel-toned fabrics in the showroom. They were gorgeous. I was exhausted after a long day at Neocon, but when I saw this showroom, it perked me up like an espresso.

When design takes priority, the result is often strange closets.
