The site features more than 70,000 items and includes dozens of brands that largely have been sold through interior designers, and numerous others that typically are found in design showrooms and have been sold by both designers and traditional furniture retailers.

“It is now possible to explore, discover and shop beautiful home furnishings and décor items from the most prestigious interiors brands all in one place,” Toms said. “At Perigold, we are dedicated to bringing the very best in home to shoppers in the most seamless and delightful way possible.”
