\nAT THE MARKET\u00c2\u00a0— Brazil-based International Furniture\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s showroom for the April market here will feature three Brazilian manufacturers of youth furniture and other goods.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The company has shown some Brazilian-made product here, but mainly offered Chinese-made bedroom, living room and dining room furniture under the name Mobilia S.A.<\/p>\n
Now, the 3,000-square-foot showroom, space 210 in the CenterPoint building at 401 S. Hamilton St., will display all Brazilian-made furniture, and feature Brazilian coffee and artifacts, with walls and flooring made from Brazilian logs.
\n
\n\u00e2\u20ac\u0153We want people to feel like they made a voyage to our country, and not only see but experience what we are all about,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d said International Furniture President Eduardo Herscovitz.<\/p>\n
Most Brazilian-made youth and kitchen items heretofore have had a rustic look, but this market will feature more sophisticated finishes and designs, Herscovitz said.<\/p>\n
The company will show three collections of juvenile furniture and a line of upscale bunk beds. It also will have entertainment armoires and some kitchen furniture such as solid-pine cupboards and corner nooks.<\/p>\n
The juvenile furniture mixes solid pine and medium-density fiberboard, Herscovitz said, and will be available in multiple finishes by Glascor, a Brazilian-based finishing company, including lacquered surfaces.<\/p>\n
He didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t name the manufacturers, but said they are all in the Sao Bento do Sul region of Brazil. A typical captain\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s bed would retail between $399 and $699, while bunk beds will retail between $199 and $499.<\/p>\n
International Furniture has an alliance with New Jersey-based Select Sales, which will have representatives on hand to market the goods to mail-order catalogs and Internet companies. Select Sales CEO Ken Debiak said he was impressed with the products.<\/p>\n
\u00e2\u20ac\u0153I am very excited about what Eduardo and the Brazilian factories have done with this particular product,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153They have gone out and researched designs and finishes that I think are very exciting. It adds another dimension to Brazilian products.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n
Debiak believes the product has a lot of potential with mass merchants and specialty stores.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
