Furniture World News Desk on 10/12/2018


KAS reports that they are introducing 14 new collections and expanding multiple in-line collections for High Point Market this year.. “We’re escalating our assortment this season with more handwoven products to widen our product breadth extensively,” stated Marketing Associate, Brianne Coradini, “while staying focused on bringing unique and trendy machine-wovens to market.”

4 of the 14 new collections that KAS is focusing on are: Morris, Perry, Portland and Provo.

Morris – A collection of 7 different handwoven jute and polyester printed chindis, the colors of these chindis are what make the rugs so unique and intriguing. Bohemian flair combined with a multi-textured feel of vintage prints add a rustic element and definite depth to your floors.

Perry – Perry presents textured geometric patterns with hi-lo effects and tassels, handwoven in India and available in 5 unique patterns. The colors are neutral enough to go with any décor and bold enough to make the room pop!

Portland – Machine woven rugs with a fringe create antique appeal out of polyester printed patterns! These rugs have a striking washed vintage traditional element to them. Available in 7 different patterns and all unique in color and design.

Provo – Expanding their Indoor-Outdoor footprint, KAS presents Provo…textured machine-woven rugs made of UV-treated polypropylene that are easy to care for year-round. Combining trendy pop colors and a thin, textured pile, these rugs are easy to decorate around making this a great collection for anyone with any type of lifestyle indoors or out.

Growing KAS’ Indoor-Outdoor assortment further, they will be introducing 6 new patterns this market, designed by Libby Langdon herself. These outdoor rugs are built to stand the test of time indoors or out. Hand-hooked of UV-treated polypropelene in a coastal color palette, these rugs are perfect for a relaxed outdoor setting or a refreshing indoors.
