Every year a secret meeting of representatives from various nations’ color standards groups meet to determine the Pantone Color of the Year and this year they’ve chosen the color Marsala. The impactful, full-bodied qualities of Marsala make for an elegant, grounded statement color when used on its own or as a strong accent to many other colors. A naturally robust and earthy wine red, Marsala enriches our minds, bodies and souls. This color is dramatic and at the same time grounding, the rich and full-bodied red-brown Marsala brings color warmth into home interiors. Marsala is equally appealing to men and women and it encourages color creativity and experimentation.
England Furniture invites you to embrace the 2015 Pantone Color of the Year by reviewing our England Furniture fabrics that highlight the color Marsala. This post is a first in a series of ten posts that will explore Marsala fabrics from England.
Here’s an introduction of what’s to come!
The month of April brings two things with certainty to High Point, NC – allergens and the International Furniture Market. While we have no control over spring and the former, the latter is ours to define in whatever manner we think best showcases our products. Response from dealers who visited our Plaza Suites showroom reinforced our prediction that this would be a fantastic market for England Furniture. Our floor was filled with fresh looks, lively colors and a balanced mix of traditional, contemporary and transitional furniture. Our Top 5 best-selling styles were the 5380 Weaver, 4630 Angie, 2V00 Vespers, 3B00 Paxton and 1Z05 Blayklee. The top selling motion group was the 3A00 Masters and the favorite leather group was the 2T00AL Loyston. The cover chosen most to dress market purchases was Longhorn Silt, an overall simulated suede-look fabric.
In keeping with our tag line “Furniture durable enough to survive the whole family,” England Furniture “wow’ed” dealers with England Furniture Pet Beds – an upholstered, monogramable bed for pets available in two sizes – small and medium. Now your pet can sleep on its own furniture, perhaps in a cover inspired by your own sofa!
Programs new in April, 2015, include Sunbrella, a line of indoor, outdoor furniture covered in soft, luxurious Sunbrella, Glen Raven Mill’s fade resistant performance fabric made of acrylic based fiber. Sunbrella was originally designed for patio and sunroom furniture, awnings, marine applications and other areas where the elements play havoc on natural fabrics.
Dorchester Abbey, a step-up leather program featuring select leathers and linens on a limited number of frames, is being offered to qualifying dealers. Work continues on adding Coil Core spring enhancements as an option to motion. Motion styles new at the April market can accommodate the upgrade; older motion styles will be converted as parts become available, our goal being by the end of June.
Traffic and sales were both up double-digits in the England Furniture showroom. For the sake of our beloved industry and the men and women who work in it, we hope other showrooms had similar results. Even though the pollen seemed up by double-digits, too – and it rained way more than we thought it should – it turned out to be quite a pleasant market. Many thanks to our England Furniture customers, the England Furniture employees who made it happen, and to our England Furniture dealers for affirming their efforts. Now on to planning for the October Market…
As a recap to the Vegas Winter market – and a preview to the upcoming April High Point International Furniture Market- England Furniture is pleased to introduce the following all-leather collections and the associated leathers that will make them fabulous.
2T00AL: LOYSTON
Streamlined, clean, and simple are all suitable adjectives to describe our contemporary Loyston leather collection. From its grand scale and super comfortable down wrapped cushions to its casual style elements including non-welted top-stitched cushions, large track arm, and wooden block leg, this style is sure to please. We offer a sofa, loveseat, chair, and ottoman in this silhouette all covered in your choice of our vast leather selection.
2S00AL: LONESTAR
England’s Lonestar collection is as comfortable as it is versatile. This leather style boasts a classic shape and simple style elements that make it the perfect addition to just about any home. It rolled panel arm, welted seat and back cushions, turned wood leg, and luxe proportions create a look that’s undeniably beautiful. Not only does it look great, but its down wrapped cushion and generously padded arm create an extremely comfortable seat. We offer a sofa, loveseat, chair, and ottoman to furnish your home to your heart’s content.
2R00AL: LUCY
Simply stunning. Similar to the Chesterfield styles of centuries ago, Lucy boasts a large rolled shelter arm trimmed with antique bronze nails, a deeply tufted back and inside arm, an intricately turned wooden leg, and a front rail with simple button detail. Not only is this style of generous scale, it also features a plush feather wrapped cushion for utmost comfort. Cover it in your choice of our premium leathers to suit your taste. Available as a sofa, loveseat, chair, and ottoman.
THE NEW ENGLAND FURNITURE LEATHERS INCLUDE:

These hides create a one of a kind masterpiece. These also make beautiful rugs to accent your unique style. Available in four color ranges.

Stallone is a South American leather finished in Italy. These hides are drum dyed, hand sanded, and topped with a coat of silicon for a unique vintage character. Each hide has its own personality based on visible healed scars, fat wrinkles, and range marks. Our Stallone hides create a truly distinct look wherever they are applied. We offer three colors of this beautiful hide.
Galveston:
Galveston is a classic traditional leather finished in Italy for a perfectly distressed look. This aniline dyed hide features a crackled effect with wax applied over top that adds character to each color. Each hide has a unique look based on natural markings.

Several England Furniture sales representatives were recently recognized for their performance during the 2014 fiscal year at the October International Furniture Market in High Point. Recipients of the various England Furniture Sales Awards were determined by such measurable criteria as sales volume, territory GP, and change from the previous reporting period. Other factors that were often considered included the ability to resolve dealer issues, demonstration of a positive work ethic, and other less-definable gauges.
England Furniture is fortunate to have an excellent group of women and men who are dedicated to being the professional connection between the England Furniture factory and England Furniture customer. “All our reps deserve some level of recognition,” said Otis Sawyer, President of England, “but, when benchmarks are applied, understandably, the ones with the most impressive stats gravitate to the top.”
In addition to the regular sales awards, England Furniture also annually awards one individual in their sales force who best exemplifies the values held by England Furniture founder, Arnold Dwight England. The award, the “Mr. D Award,” is arguably the most coveted honor presented each year. On occasion a Trailblazer Award is also awarded to one individual whose was able to grow in his/her territory despite challenging circumstances. This year this amazing award went to our Northern California representative.
The 2014 England Furniture Sales Awards were awarded to the following persons:
Cam Morgan, North Carolina (Small Territory)
Josh Weeks, Colorado and parts of NE and WY (Medium Territory)
Jim Emerson, ND, SD, MN and No. Iowa (Large Territory)
Phil Johnson, Kansas and Missouri and parts of Iowa and NE (“Mr. D” Award)
Dolly Ponta, No. California (Trailblazer Award)

The loveseat remains a popular room to furnish rooms in your home. They are comfortable and they provide a little more seating than a single chair, but they take up less space than a common couch. Finding the perfect loveseat can be a exciting journey and typically involves the consideration of the following factors.
1. Choice of fabric. When you go in search of your perfect loveseat you’ll want to plan in advance whether you are looking for leather or fabric. Leather can be very durable and often comes in a single color. Fabric options on a loveseat are endless and should match the décor of the room you plan to put it in.
2. Plain fabric or print? If you decide on fabric, you’ll need to choose between all sorts of fabrics. One benefit of choosing a single color fabric over a print is accessorizing. This choice allows you more flexibility on the choice off colorful pillows or afghans that can be changed out with the seasons. A print fabric has multiple colors that you can accessorize around as well, with one color chosen from the print to place a single color throw or pillow that matches other furniture in the room.
3. Charm or durability or both? Do you prefer a rugged, hearty loveseat that is welcoming to kids and pets, a fine fabric that you know will look great on your loveseat or do you want it all?
4. Convertible or regular loveseat? Some loveseats can be converted into a single bed. This is convenient prospect for a single bed and is much more comfortable than sleeping on regular loveseat.
5. Ottoman or no ottoman? Many loveseats can be purchased or ordered with a matching ottoman. An ottoman is basically a foot rest, but in the right environment it can serve as a table. The ottoman can also provide additional seating as necessary.
Whatever you decide, the key to finding the perfect loveseat is to plan ahead and consider the ways you wish to use it in your home. Consider all the loveseats offered by England Furniture and find your perfect loveseat.
