Students listen intently to the owners as they speak about what is “Primitive”

Memorable, beautiful, comfortable and distinctive . . . at Jaipur Rugs they believe a rug should provide all this and more. Their rugs are created by using ancient techniques of master tribal weavers from the mountains of Northern India. Through this rich tradition, they produce strikingly beautiful hand-knotted, hand-tufted and flat woven designs. Jaipur rugs range from contemporary and transitional to lush traditional with rich colors and stunning appearance. Best of all, Jaipur Rugs brings this excellence, beauty, and distinction, affordably, into contemporary American homes.
Named after the famed royal city of Jaipur, the company was founded by N.K. Chaudhary, a visionary with nearly 30 years experience in rug manufacturing. His goal has always been to see India become the leader in the production of rugs worldwide, and from modest beginnings, Chaudhary grew his business from a small team of talented artisans to a force of 40,000 skilled masters and an in-house design team of over 30 designers. It is . Chaudhary’s vision allows Jaipur to have total control of the production of rugs and sets the company apart from many of its competitors. Today, more than 25 years after he set up his first looms for weavers, Chaudhary is still seeing his goal realized as he continues to push the envelope. In 1998, Chaudhary expanded his company to the United States and is based in Atlanta, Georgia.
Jaipur shares a collective dedication to minute detail, demanding quality control, and superior materials in every stage of the rug-crafting process, ensuring that each finished piece is consistently a true work of art at the best possible price point. Jaipur strives to improve and perfect their processes through innovation in product development and design. Their innovative technologies in communication, design, and optimization, as well as their collaboration with the latest home furnishing design firms, Jaipur Rugs is forever on the cutting edge of creativity and function.
From music to sculpture, architecture to poetry, great art has a unique power to envelope the mind, transcend the conscious, tap at the door of the soul, and take on a life all its own: thus begins a great artwork’s own history. Jaipur Rugs has aimed at creating the same exquisite artwork that collectors the world over have sought for centuries. Honored techniques that have spanned the ages; precision materials that will stand the test of time. In each Jaipur Rug, master artisans painstakingly hand-create a work of art in each rug. One Rug. One Story. Create your history.

New Orleans has gone through a lot of stress over the last couple of years but it remains a must visit U.S. city and these photos show why. The architecture and design in this 291 year old city brings it’s residents from the modern century to a time of European indulgence. Today the big easy maybe best be know for it’s hurricanes and Mardi Gras but there is a sense of old worldliness that has me inspired to bring a french flare into my own Interior.
While staying in the French Quarter you have got to take a walk down every street, turn every corner and discover something new. Make sure to walk the French Market after you sip on a café au lait and nibble on fresh beignets from Cafe’ Du Monde. Walk the St. Louis Cathedral square at night and have your cards or palm read just for fun! But do make sure to stop in to the Cathedral and take in the great Architecture which New Orleans was built around.
The best part of New Orleans are the courtyards and gardens. These outdoor spaces, as well as the Lobby’s and den’s of the Boutique French Quarter Hotels are where I find my Interior inspiration. Bringing the gardens into your space via small accessories like the finial shown below and other decorative accents is a great start. The nice thing about New Orleans is the amount of original art that can be bought on the street from the artist and you can usually talk them into a good price.
To really make an impact you must include a chandelier, like the one show above, in your interior. This will bring your company and you into the lounges and parlor rooms of so many great New Orleans destinations. Also by adding a frech country inspired chair or chaise you are adding style and sophistication to your space. My favorite thing to do is play off the furniture style by placing the piece in a modern space or next to a modern side table. This will bring more focus to the piece as art not just a comfy place to sit.
So when you are planning your next trip out of town remember to consider an inspiring location like New Orleans and don’t forget to take pictures of all the historical interiors and the furnishings so you can incorporate something like them in your home. And don’t forget to start your Online Search here!

This is also a great table to use while entertaining. Perfect for cocktails and a dish of nuts this style is the modern update of the “tv tray.”
One of my favorite things to do on a sunny summer afternoon is relax with a good book and a nice cold drink. The Bethany Arm Chair, above, is a great chair to kick back and relax in. Made of solid walnut and upholstered in black leather, which has been treated and is so comfortable and supple. This piece says high style but is offered at a great mid market price. Can you see yourself or your guest getting cozy in the Bethany arm chair? I know I do. It reminds me of a piece you might find in a home library or den. Where do you see the Bethany chair?

I’ve often thought about how I would bring a sense of artfulness and whimsy into a home without using painted furniture or pieces found at art fairs, then I came in touch with TLS.

All of their products are made of hardwood, which has been kiln-dried to 6-8% moisture content, assuring you that the upholstery frames and case goods will not crack or warp, regardless of the climate or season. Their trademarked ModuCoil? Suspension for the Upholstery is an industry standard, offering similar construction and feel as an eight Way Hand-Tie, but with improved quality offering a longer more useful product life.
TLS offers quality USA made upholstery with 3-4 week lead-times, and they keep an inventory of more than 95% of their case goods, so they can ship your order within a few days from their Indiana warehouse. TLS is truly original high-end design at mid-market prices. Home Décor Buyer Magazine founder, Jim Carper said, “I have never seen a company introduce so many new truly original products at one time.” TLS was invited into the prestigious InterHall section of the International Home Furnishing Center after their first High Point market.

Sometimes I find myself asking the question, where would we be without America’s favorite talk show host, Oprah Winfrey? Well for Randal Weeks and partners at Aidan Gray, they’d probably still be working in health care or at a large corporation. Inspired by an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show, Randal pushed to act on his dream and build something that he could be passionate about. “You will never be happy if you are not passionate about what you do,” Oprah said, a motto that took Randal a long time to uncover, but one that he lives by daily. This small but meaningful quote brought about the creation of Aidan Gray and continues to help the company create furniture pieces that feel and look like one of a kind antiques.
The Aidan Gray line represents a love for interiors, design and authentic products that exude “European Grandeur.” The line reaches all aspects of the interior. From furniture and chandeliers to candle sticks and mirrors. Aidan gray also offers beautiful garden accessories that will turn even the most modest of green spaces into a french country garden. Everything in the line is based on the partners desire for products made by hand. All of the pieces are designed and made with authentic materials such as solid wood, rustic metals, antique mirror, old painted finishes and silk appointments. This is how Aidan Gray received it’s name as being a go to furniture house for architecturally accurate home décor.
Inspired by classic french design the Annabel Club Chair, seen above, is constructed from European Oak. Each frame is carved and then burnished to a rustic patina. Seat cushion in hand tied springs which delivers a firmer seat lasting much longer than your basic stuffing. Each loose cushion is made of foam wrapped in down then set into a pocket before covering. All of Aidan Gray’s pieces have been rigorously designed and built to be heirloom pieces and should be treated as such.
Aidan Grays line of decorative accessories will compliment any room. From the most modern of home libraries to the sweetest summer beach home, these unique pieces will pull any space together.
