Capel Rugs celebrated the grand opening of its new San Francisco showroom on January 21st. The company’s Bay Area showroom moved to the Design Pavilion at 200 Kansas St. after a ru
n of more than 55 years in the San Francisco Mart building. The new 5,000-sq.-ft. showroom (photo, right) will showcase more than 1,000 rugs from Capel’s program including collections from licensees Biltmore for Your Home, Country Living, Williamsburg and Bob Timberlake.
"Moving the showroom to the design district is a great opportunity for Capel to more effectively serve current designers and to introduce the Capel brand to many individuals who shop exclusively in that area," said Fran Wilson, Capel's San Francisco showroom manager.
Display improvements include the addition of an 8' x 10' rack to show more one-of-a-kind hand knots in a variety of styles and sizes. Two back-to-back freestanding racks will showcase Capel Braids - American Originals and the Capel Anywhere collection. For more information, call (415) 861-3431.
