High Point Market returns this spring, and we have put together a guide to key exhibitors not to miss, starting with the COVER Connect Pop Up and a curated selection of standout brands across the fair
With seven different neighbourhoods in the Downtown zone alone, High Point Market is a behemoth of a home furnishings show. It remains the most important destination for rugs, bringing together a global mix of brands, collections and design perspectives.
That is why we are holding our first COVER Connect Pop Up at Centers of High Point Market. Located in Russell 112, Floor 1, it offers a focused opportunity to discover exceptional rugs, gain market insight and connect directly with leading brands.
Presented by COVER magazine, the space brings together a curated group of six leading rug brands: Tamarian, Anadol Rugs, Creative Matters, Label STEP, Samad Rugs, and Wool & Silk.
On Sunday 26 April, you can also join us for the COVER Social, a relaxed late-afternoon gathering with drinks, light bites and conversation from 4–7pm.
Ahead of the COVER Social, there will be a roundtable hosted by Creative Matters and Label STEP from 3–4pm named, ‘Crafted for the Future: How Sustainability and Artisan Skill Are Redefining Luxury.’
You can find out more abut our High Point Market Pop Up by heading to the COVER Connect website.
Across the wider market, Art Resources will show pieces from its Souf and Marrakesh collections. New Moon will also be here.
Other exhibitors include Eliko Rugs by David Ariel,Linie Design and Olker Rugs.
At Hamilton Wrenn, Capel Rugs introduces eight new collections, including the colourful Bazaar, inspired by ‘the energy and artistry of global marketplaces’.
In Market Square & Elm, S&H Rugs will debut a hand-knotted collection blending Persian garden motifs with arts and crafts patterns.
