As autumn arrives and you settle in from summer travels back to the comforts of home, a host of talented Maitland-Smith designers are putting the final touches on our showroom for the Fall International Home Furnishings Market this October.


50001-003-000

This Market, we’re especially proud to showcase what we call gracious living—our signature traditional and antique reproductions meticulously and thoughtfully updated for the 21st century. As a savvy designer articulates it, "Today’s progressive homeowners are choosing updated, classic pieces and styles that will outlast the current hot trend."
