Las Vegas Market adds ‘Discoveries — The Antique Vintage Marketplace’ to summer show
In preparation for the summer 2015 launch of “Discoveries — The Antique Vintage Marketplace,” Las Vegas Market has secured three key anchor exhibitors and forged a new partnership with veteran antique fair organizer Arbor Antiques Services, Inc. This new, immediate-delivery marketplace for antique, vintage and one-of-a-kind resources debuts August 2-5, 2015.
Presented within the new Pavilions at Las Vegas Market, Discoveries is a unique new resource for the independent retail and interior design audience looking to diversify their assortments through the addition of antique, vintage and one-of-a-kind resources — all appropriate for display and resale and available for immediate delivery. Adding another layer of interest, one-of-a-kind merchandise throughout Discoveries will be replenished each day with new finds
Three anchor exhibitors have been secured for Discoveries:
- Go Home is a “descendant” of the antique importing empire, Golden Oldies, based in Flushing, New York. This family-run business has grown to include a unique collection of home décor accessories that combine original, European-flavored product designs and vintage Golden Oldies items.
- Classic Home offers a wide array of home furnishings. Products feature traditional craftsmanship from unique resources found around the world and old one-of-a-kind items such as TV cabinets with old doors, architectural elements and other traditional accents.
- Blue Ocean Traders specializes in the importing of the finest antiques and reproductions for home and garden, traveling all corners of the globe in search of the most exotic, one-of-a-kind antiques and true-to-form reproductions. Blue Ocean Traders sources salvaged, reclaimed, vintage items to accurately reproduce pieces from the past.
The product offerings of these companies at Discoveries will be a separate presentation from what is shown in their permanent showrooms, featuring a distinct and new collection of merchandise for immediate release. The new partnership with Arbor Antiques will present a collection of 15 to 20 dealers, featuring fine European and American antique furniture, antique linens, American primitives, silver, china, pottery, antique prints, rugs and more. Arbor Antiques’ collection will comprise some 5,000 square feet of exhibit space within the Pavilions at Las Vegas Market.
On an annual basis, Arbor Antiques promotes their spring and fall show during the nationally recognized Antiques Festival in Round Top, Texas. The 12-acre Arbor Antiques venue at Round Top features world-class antique dealers from across the globe showcasing their wares. After nearly 20 years in the industry, Arbor Antiques has earned a strong reputation as a standout show and a must-see shopping destination while at Round Top.
The launch of Discoveries — The Antique Vintage Marketplace is a component of the repositioning and reimagining of the Market’s temporary exhibits as The Pavilions at Las Vegas Market, a dramatic, freestanding, climate controlled temporary tradeshow space showcasing some 90,000 net square feet of innovative and emerging gift and home décor resources.
