New Looks for the Taylor King Home

Vintage Redefined

Bartizon
Wingback styling with clean lines, surprising curves and hand-turned legs give this sofa a unique, vintage appeal. In hues reminiscent of a sepia photograph, textured tweed is trimmed with a contrasting leather gimp adorned with 1/2" old gold nails spaced 1/2" apart. Throw pillows are finished in patchwork leather and embroidered raw silk.

Billy Lee
Ideal for the scholar's sanctuary, this Mount Vernon exposed wood accent chair boasts a relaxed formality. Loose down cushions are covered in a textured chenille in chocolate and mint tones. A deep mahogany suede outback and seat is trimmed in antique French nails and decorative carved wood detail is accented by Taylor King's Espresso Crackle premium wood finish.

Mikaela
Sink into luxury in this hand-tufted settee. Petite and curvy, this scaled down centerpiece has an old Hollywood feel. Covered in chocolaty embossed velvet and accented by contrasting throw pillows in a tapestry-inspired paisley printed on linen to capture an old-world feeling.

Beckett
Warm and inviting, this chair is as comfortable as it is magnificent. An exquisitely carved exposed wood frame and cushioned leather armrests are accented by braided leather trim. Perfectly framed in grandeur, a bohemian floral motif is embroidered in deep plum and gold hues of raw silk.

Sophisticated Reflections

Antoinette
Sweeping lines and a hand-carved, exposed wood frame create striking contrast in this stately chair. Finished in a wrought-iron patterned fabric for an architectural effect.

Metro
Perfect for the upscale urban sanctuary, this chair's geometric lines are accentuated by polished brass nail trim detail and an exposed wood frame. Covered in an ultra-soft coffee toned Ultrasuede®, this exclusive style is accentuated with a decorative octagonal-patterned tape.

Western Classic

Granger
At once luxurious and rugged, this stunning sofa captures the spirit of the west in sumptuous harness leather trim and decorative brass tack details. Decorative throw pillows add fringe and patchwork detail for eclectic appeal in deep sunset hues.
