CreatedinFrance® brings quality and style to the NYIGF

Online, February 10, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Paris - CreatedinFrance®, sponsored by Ateliers d'Art de France and dedicated to promoting the work of French craftsmen and companies abroad, will feature a pavilion of French manufacturers in the Accent on Design section at the NYIGF. The unique combination of quality and style is set to attract the attention of American buyers and consumers during this vibrant international event.

Supported by the French Ministry of Foreign Trade, CreatedinFrance® was established in 2002 under the umbrella of Ateliers d'Art de France. The group will be represented by 20 exhibitors in total, with four manufacturers in the Accent on Design section this year.

"The Accent on Design pavilion of the NYIGF features design-led merchandise," begins Alexandre Minne, Export Project Manager, Ateliers d'Art de France. "From Herve Gambs Creation bespoke-modern, decorative objects and Jars eco-friendly contemporary ceramics to Kajaal pure lines, rich textiles and L'Agenda Moderne French leather goods, the CreatedinFrance® exhibitors embody the quality, tradition and flair French designers are internationally recognized for."

Located on level 3 aisle 4000, the CreatedinFrance® Accent on Design pavilion opens January 31st and runs
until February 4th at the Javits Center in New York City.

Herve Gambs Creation (booth 4040), established in 1989, combines international inspiration with a passion for the outdoors to create a line of room fragrances, furniture and decorative objects which use natural material. The Herve Gambs Creation mix of complexity and excellence promise to draw in visitors to experience this unique sophistication.

Water, air, fire and earth are very elements Jars (booth 4044) philosophy embodies. Their distinct line of artistic tableware is eco-friendly, organic, and ranges from classic white simplicity to the rich color gamut nature creates.

Kajaal (booth 4042) marries the pure sensuality of the North with the rich embroideries of the South in a line of home couture that is luxurious and timeless. Kajaal design remains sober and minimalist, in contrast with the generous and comfortable fabrics inherent in this label.

With a rigorous selection of leathers, L'Agenda Moderne (booth 4046) draws upon almost two centuries of expertise to create their collection of diaries, organizers, address books and accessories. Elegant and original, these items complement any ensemble.
