The growing focus on handmade and artisan goods permeated the luxury furnishings and decor showrooms at the recent High Point Market in High Point, N.C. The spring edition of the semiannual furnishings show saw multiple designer collaborations and new collections focusing on the makers behind the pieces.
Craft Associates was founded in 1952 by famed designer Adrian Pearsall. Jones and his family — who also own high-end furnishings retail operation The Swanky Abode — resurrected the brand in 2014. They specialize in handcrafted, high-end pieces, such as the ones in the Milo Baughman collection. The line includes seven pieces — three tables, two cabinets, a dining chair and a coat tree — with sweeping curves and sharp angles mimicking The Met’s ornate exterior. Each piece comes with Abner Henry’s craftsmanship carried out in its Ohio factory and metal forge.
While Bikoff’s Crayola-hued collection seems a departure for more reserved Abner Henry, the designer said the company’s finish capability with its on-site color lab made customizing the line easy. “Ardmore was started by my mom as a ceramic studio, and now we work with around 50 African artists,” said Jon Berning, director of Ardmore Design. “We were initially ceramics and then moved into homeware and fabrics because we didn’t want to turn our ceramic arts into a product because it would lose its soul and essence.”
