CHICAGO — Luxury furniture resource Marge Carson has unveiled 13 new pieces as part of its spring 2024 collection and also has launched a new website aimed at offering customers a better browsing and shopping experience.
The new pieces include five chairs, two sofas, two floor mirrors, a matching counter and bar stool, plus a bench and a bar cart. Each piece was created based on the design preferences of its clients, said company President Janet Linly.
“Emphasizing superior quality and craftsmanship, these pieces are crafted to transcend fleeting trends and instead offer a timeless appeal that resonates with clients who value both style and longevity,” Linly told Home News Now. “Responding to requests for pieces that seamlessly complement our original designs, some dating back 20-30 years, we’ve ensured that each creation upholds our hallmark standards of quality craftsmanship and timeless allure.”
Pricing falls in line with similar items offered by Marge Carson, and final pricing is based on how customers choose to customize certain items. Starting prices range from $4,730 for the Spencer counter stool to $14,680 for the Enzo sofa.
The items are made at the company’s Mexico source production facilities, and lead times vary based on the level of customization and nature of each piece.
“Pieces are meticulously bench-made to order, ensuring that each creation receives the attention to detail it deserves,” Linly said, adding that the company also is launching new case goods collections later this year, which includes dining tables, side tables and foyer tables, “further enriching the Marge Carson brand with a complete line of upholstery, bedrooms, bedding, case goods and accent pieces.”
She noted that initial response to the new pieces from retailers and clients has been overwhelmingly positive, reflecting a “deep appreciation for the craftsmanship and sophistication they embody.”
She added that the company’s new website, www.margecarson.com, highlights the newest product introductions, including those that are part of the spring launch, along with inline products by categories including bedroom, dining and living room as well as collections. Each item is shown with various images in silos and room settings, and customers can see specs and initial pricing of each item before requesting a quote based on custom options ranging from finishes and nailhead trim detail to custom fabrics, fringes and tassels, to name several.
The site even has pet furniture including dog beds priced from about $2,900 to $7,250.
“Our brand-new website has been designed to offer an immersive and effortless browsing experience, showcasing our timeless pieces with captivating new finishes and fabrics,” Linly said, adding that notable features include the “Request Quote” function, which helps “facilitate seamless communication between clients and dealers, while our curated collection of pillows offers Marge Carson clients the opportunity to refresh their cherished pieces with effortless sophistication.”
She said that traffic to the site thus far has exceeded expectations, with more than 300 quotes received in the first five days of its launch.
“This surge in interest from clients worldwide serves as a testament to the enduring appeal and unwavering commitment to excellence embodied by the Marge Carson brand,” she said.
