Wright Table Co. and Charleston Forge, both western North Carolina makers of upper end furniture, are partnering to offer their customers a broader collection of wood tops and metal table bases.
Wright Table, known for its artistry in woodworking, has developed an exclusive line of finishes and wood textures for Charleston Forge to add to its line of hand-forged metal table bases.
The new offerings will be presented in the Charleston Forge showroom at Market Square during the upcoming High Point Furniture Market. The showroom space is 110 A.
"Our companies share a lot of the same customers and we both enjoy a reputation for quality products," said Art Barber, chairman and CEO of Charleston Forge. "We feel the industry will appreciate us combining our talents to offer some gorgeous new pieces. The colors and textures that Don Wright and his artists have developed for us work really well with the transitional and contemporary pieces we will be showing at market. Reactions at premarket were very flattering."
The two companies recently furnished the new Rooster's Wood Fired Grill restaurant in Charlotte, N.C. for Jim and Karen Noble, former owners of Noble's Restaurant in High Point. Designed by Holly Carter of Aiken, S.C., Wright Table made the banquets and barstools and Charleston Forge made custom light fixtures and a massive wine rack that measures forty feet long by ten feet tall.
