Textiles at Apropos

Apropos has been a staple in the New York Design Center @ 200 Lex from the very beginning. In fact, last year marked forty years in business. For that we would like to thank our partners – the factories we represent, and the designers we serve. Without you, this showroom would not be possible.

We’ve made some exciting new changes in the past couple of years. All along, our upholstery lines such as LEE Industries, Wesley Hall, American Leather, and Vanguard Furniture have offered cut yardage. We’ve recently added a number of textile companies to the mix.

Fall 2020 Market Intros: LEE Industries

For the first time in 25+ years, Apropos did not attend the High Point Fall Market. Fortunately though – we represent some great factories who have provided photos of new product and fabric intros. Let’s start with LEE Industries.

In the event that you are unfamiliar with LEE, they are a terrific company out of Conover, NC. They’ve been around for over 50 years. The LEE upholstery line is tremendous and goes from traditional through transitional right into contemporary. Goods are well-made AND well-priced. The culture of the company is more that of a family than a corporation and they remain committed to their clients, the community and the environment.

What’s new from LEE Industries? A few standout frames were introduced.

  • 5430-25 Day Bed
  • 8223-03 Sofa

The day bed has nice clean lines and the flared arms give it a little polish. The 8223 Sofa is somewhat reminiscent of the wildly popular 5772 Chair. If you’d like to take a peak at all of the LEE Industries Fall Market Intros, please have at it.

As far as fabrics are concerned, we’ve got some new exclusive prints and some luxe textures.

You really must come in to see and touch…

All in all, LEE did not disappoint. They haven’t re-invented the wheel but they’ve introduced a couple of new frames and they’ve tweaked some solid performers. Contact your sales associate to review what’s new either remotely or in person.
