Taylorsville, N.C. -- North Carolina-based furniture maker Taylor King wrapped up a successful High Point market with orders and attendance exceeding the past several markets. The company reported enthusiasm from showroom visitors who applauded the use of innovative treatments and eye-catching details in the company's classic and transitional designs.

"We're thrilled to have received such a great response from buyers this market," said Vice President of Marketing Tanya Comer. "It just goes to show that people are still looking for that exceptional level of quality and style, and we were able to exceed their expectations by providing them with great values on such detailed pieces."

New treatments that debuted during Taylor King's fall market include leather patch corners, jewelry-inspired nail accents, fabric taping in picture frame and border applications and banded fabric skirts.

One of these decorative treatments is the new Geisha pillow (shown at right), which features a vertical arrangement of knotted ties reminiscent of traditional Japanese clothing. All of Taylor King's finishing treatments may be used to customize chairs, sofas and ottomans.

Washington's Barbados Excursion

Throw pillows in a Taylor King exclusive paisley of tranquil blue, wheat and chicory adds the finishing touch. Suggested retail is $4,995.
