The next High Point Market is scheduled for October 25–29, 2025, bringing together thousands of designers, buyers and exhibitors

Ember, New Moon
The fall edition of High Point Market is always packed with new product launches and tasters from major rug brands, so buyers flock to this ever-popular ANDMORE Market offering. A host of events make for a welcoming, accessible and entertaining visitor experience. Themed Hot Spot Tours and guided Style Spotter Tours with the five Style Spotters for 2025 will be available to book from late September. Plus the Insiders Tour will be open to new Market attendees with a buyers’ pass who have not been to Market within the past two years.

Style Spotter Rasheeda Grey, the founder and principal designer of Gray Space Interiors, selected a Jaipur Living rug as one of her New Product Picks at the spring Market. Her full-day tour in October is billed as being ‘not just a showroom stroll’ but ‘a business strategy…about more than inspiration-it’s about connection, strategy and smart sourcing.’ The other Style Spotters for this year are Victoria Holly, Jewel Marlowe, Evan Millárd and Tina Ramchandani. English Village Lane will introduce thirteen new rugs by Heather Chadduck Interiors in flatweave, hand-knotted and jute/wool constructions that have been inspired by both companies’ founders’ favourite travels.

Capel Rugs will introduce the Abacos collection of modern casual geometric designs hand tufted in India in wool. Their free-form highlow, irregular shapes resemble natural elements. Capel’s Jacquard-loomed collection Antissa is inspired by the serene landscapes and ancient ruins of Aegean towns captured in viscose and wool. It will also add Sky, a fresh new colourway, to two of its Serengeti collection designs-Antelope and Leopard.

Upcoming launches from KAS Rugs include two powerloomed collections, Mira and Portia. Its Aspen collection embodies artisanal quality and subtle sophistication, being hand-knotted of handcarded New Zealand wool; the Denali hand-tufted collection is made entirely from undyed wool, celebrating the organic variations of the material.

Orientalist Home will show a new collection of Chinese Art Deco-inspired rugs, and will debut programmable Ushaks as well. New Moon always brings out in force its freshest new looks for the season, as does Jaipur Living, whose showroom displays are ever inspiring. This October, its new pieces will include Majnun, inspired by the çintamani motif found in ancient Buddhist and Hindu literature. Celebrating power, wisdom, and strength, the hand-knotted design originates from ‘a powerful and mystical space, embracing the Persian concept of intentional imperfection, where small “flaws” are woven in because true perfection is reserved for the Almighty.’ Also, the Solum collection has been created in collaboration with designer Bradley Odom, bringing a fresh perspective to neutral design using 100% wool, offering shaggy texture in sophisticated tones. There are new designs joining Jaipur Living’s Saga, Kazben and Keoka collections too, the latter putting a twist on traditional Afghan textiles.
