Capel Rugs has forged a partnership with designer Anthony Baratta to develop a new line of rug designs that will be introduced at the October 2017 High Point Market.
“I am thrilled and honored to be partnering with such an iconic, all-American company as Capel Rugs to produce my collection,” Baratta says. “Not only do they have incredible manufacturing capabilities and a flawless reputation for quality, Capel also has the vision and design integrity to create a collection that will truly reflect my aesthetic and stand the test of time.”
Baratta also says that one of his favorite destinations in High Point is Capel Rugs’ showroom, naming the company’s braided rugs as one of his favorite products.
“We’re likely to do some braids, but we’ll also have inventive looks in other types of constructions,” says Cameron Capel, Vice President of National Accounts. “Look for this collection to include some unexpected elements, since [Anthony] is known for his clever combinations of materials, colors and textures.”
Known for a uniquely American design aesthetic distinguished by bold colors; ingenious mixes of patterns and scale; and relaxed forms, Baratta will also offer his Thomasville furnishing in chic bespoke fabrics in this upcoming 2017 season.
“My mission has always been to design pieces for each client that fit their personal style,” Baratta says. “With my new licensed lines with Thomasville, Wildcat Territory bedding and now Capel, I have the opportunity to make my signature look available to consumers that I may not have the opportunity to work with as individuals.”
