High Point Highlights – American Treasures® Nassau Home Theatre

HABERSHAM NassauHomeTheaterDuring the Spring 2012 High Point Market we added a number of new pieces to our growing American Treasures ® Collection.  Among my favorites is the new Nassau Home Theatre.

With this piece, like others in the collection, I worked to mix classic lines with modern influences to create what I like to call a   “livable modern” aesthetic.

Effectively bridging the gap between these two styles, this versatile design offers a wonderful entertainment option.  As with all designs in the American Treasures collection, this piece is completely customizable so you  can specify sizes and finish options.

Look for more information coming soon on some of the other new designs we introduced during Spring Market.

High Point Highlights: American Treasures® Atelier Display Cabinets

HABERSHAM AtelierDisplayCabinetMaking its debut during the recent Spring 2012 High Point Market, the new Atelier Display Cabinet  display now joins our popular  American Treasures ® Collection of copyrighted furniture designs.  This particular design brings classic lines together with  a mirror back panel, glass door and adjustable shelves to create a casually elegant, versatile accent that can blend seamlessly into any room and décor style.

American Treasures® pieces take their inspiration from classic styles that have been updated and simplified. Adding to their appeal, American Treasures® pieces are customizable.  Working out of the company’s North Georgia design studio, our  artisans and craftsmen can shape each piece to meet the client’s depth, width and height specifications.  In addition, customers can choose from the  wide spectrum of textures and tones found within  Habersham’s own family of hand-styled signature finishes –  each offering distinctive looks  created by trained artists using a series of techniques, tools and exacting standards.

Sleeper Hit of High Point – New Biltmore ® Cornelia’s Cloister Bed

by Matt Eddy, CEO April 30th, 2012

HABERSHAM Biltmore Cornelias Cloister Bed

Our new Biltmore ® Cornelia’s Cloister Bed was the  “Hit of High Point “ for us during the recent Spring 2012 Spring Market.  The reactions — gasps of surprise and delight from dealers and designers alike – were  fun to watch as they rounded the corner into the room where this new piece was showcased.

The latest  addition to our  licensed Biltmore ® Chateau Reserve Collection, this twin bed design was inspired by the Sheraton Room at Biltmore House in Asheville, NC.  The Cloister Bed is neoclassical in style and shares a headboard and canopy, creating a large-scale image of grandeur.

The wood is indicative of early 19th century architectural cloisters, where  covered walks in monasteries, colleges and cathedrals had one walled side and one open colonnade.   The piece is named for Cornelia Vanderbilt, only child of Biltmore’s visionary creator George Vanderbilt and his wife Edith. Cornelia grew up at Biltmore and was truly, as the estate’s website describes,  a “princess of a 250-room castle and its 8000-acre kingdom.”

Habersham’s Custom Colors Offer Countless Choices

Habersham Hand-styled furnitureWhether you want a finish that picks up a color from a treasured oriental rug, complements a wall color or creates a dramatic contrast for other pieces in a master bath, we can help you find the perfect match.
