Dear Friends:

What a summer! Heat, fires, more heat, more fires. Record temperatures nationwide. Unreal.

Our hearts go out to our clients and friends in Spokane, WA, where some 65,000 people have been evacuated and some 700 structures destroyed by the fires. And still growing… what devastation… hopefully it will come under control soon.

It takes longer than one would think to turn drawings/designs into a real product. We are proud to present the art deco-inspired Empire Table Leg, the 2023 annual Design Contest winner, designed by Saahiti Kothamasu of Boone, NC. What an elegant design! In stock now. Special order, delivery 6-8 weeks.

Have you been thinking of some amazing furniture accessory solutions? Our 41st annual Design Competition closes on December 11, 2026. We look forward to seeing your fabulous, yet practical, furniture parts and components.

It’s time we met in person! We’ll be at IWF in Atlanta at the Georgia World Congress Center later this month, August 25-28. Please stop by and see our latest and greatest.

And August, being a traditional holiday time before school gets back in session, we wish you and yours a relaxing holiday.

Cordially,
Douglas A.J. Mockett
President
