Kalaty To Host Atlanta Event

Kalaty Rug Corporation will host a special event during the Atlanta International Rug Show in honor of their newest licensed rug collections – Newport Mansions and Portfolio by Parisa. The party, which includes cocktails, hors d’oeuvres and live music, will be held from 4 – 7 pm on Thursday, January 10, at the company’s AmericasMart showroom, 4-G-14.

Designer Parisa Abdollahi and representatives from The Preservation Society of Newport County will be special guests of honor at the event. The Preservation Society’s representatives will be present throughout the market to talk about the historic homes of Newport, Rhode Island, and the various inspirations for this special rug collection. In addition, there will be special signage depicting many of the Newport Mansions.

Founded in 1945, The Preservation Society of Newport County is a private non-profit education organization, which through donated funds, gifts, bequests and loans, is today able to display one of the most extraordinary cross sections of American architecture and interiors in the country. The houses, cottages and mansions of Newport’s “Gilded Age” are preserved as museums that provide the world with a place to appreciate and study America’s rich architectural, artistic and decorative heritage from the past 250 years. Kalaty has proudly joined a list of companies who produce authorized reproductions and adaptations of objects in The Society’s vast collections, which helps to sustain the Society’s mission of educating the public as well as preserving and maintaining these historic houses.

Kalaty is a member of the ORIA.
