There are multiple product lines from several suppliers and a broad customer base. A leased showroom is used for international furniture shows and customers, and leased warehouse space is included.

The company was created in 1996 in New York by a European entrepreneur who had a great love for French antiques.

He decided to work with quality manufacturers who designed and produced “antique reproductions" and French country-style furniture.

The first manufacturer represented by the company had been an antique dealer in France for many years.

The founder of the company wanted to bring quality pieces to the many Americans who shared his love for the fine and elegantly crafted look of 17th and 18th century France. In 1999 the decision was made to move the company’s operations to North Carolina, with the showroom and warehouse in High Point.

The company grew rapidly over the next few years. The company has represented many manufacturers from Europe in an attempt to define what the American marketplace truly desires. In addition to three main manufacturers, the company has its own private collection.
