Leather Italia-USA readies entry-level line for Tupelo

By Furniture Today Staff -- Furniture Today, January 12, 2003

Wilmington, N.C. — Leather Italia-USA will debut at the February Tupelo market an opening-price-point leather upholstery line called the Santeramo Collection.

The six 92-inch contemporary, transitional and exposed-wood frames will retail from $799 to $999, said Michael Campbell, president and chief executive officer.

"This creates a much broader approach for our opening offerings," he said.

Sofas feature hand-stitched, premium-grade A hides, top-grain uncorrected leathers, fully aniline-dyed hides, and padded fronts, sides and backs, enhanced with 2.5 foam cell construction.

Pieces can be ordered from Leather Italia-USA's warehouse here with no minimums.

"These frames target our current customers who want a value-priced product with the same quality and high standards they get with our better goods," said Happy Wade, vice president and national sales manager.

Leather Italia-USA has added 25,000 square feet to support the new collection, bringing total warehouse space to 105,000 square feet.
