Designer Jill Rosenwald has joined forces with Magenta, a Berkeley, Calif.-based home accent manufacturer, debuting a chic new home collection at the winter markets in Atlanta and New York.

This teaset is from the new line by Magenta. |
Rosenwald's first collection for Magenta includes colorful pieces in ceramics and melamine with snappy flowers and concentric circle patterns. A home accent line of colorful bottles in various shapes and sizes also debuted.
Future collections will include work in paper, metals and a line of fabric table linens to coordinate with her tabletop pieces.
Rosenwald's first foray into licensed products began with a ceramic collection for Toyo Trading, which launched at the April 2003 High Point market. Her contract with Toyo has since expired. She also designs licensed collections for Homefires, Village Court and Laneventure. She has recently signed with a new licensing agent, David Graff.
"It is important to me to design for companies that are ready for my look," she said. "Licensing with a designer at the helm is still a very new thing for this industry."
