A Design Partnership Means Good News for the Design Industry: The Local Vault & Apadana Fine Rugs Collaborate

Over here on Nest by Tamara 
we love Apadana Rugs 
You may remember they donated that lovely charcoal grey over dyed rug to our room last April at Design On A Dime.  They have myriad rugs to choose from, and of the highest quality.  We love that they have their hands in many creative projects to boot, that they are philanthropically minded.  Their most recent collaboration means good news for designers and the design industry--Apadana is partnering with The Local Vault, which is a curated online marketplace to buy and sell high-end consigned wares.  Based in Greenwich, Connecticut TLV and Apadana are collaborating to offer competitive pricing of these rugs through The Local Vault's to-the-trade program.  For designers that means one stop shopping with exclusive furniture and rugs together, and all the while in a place that helps stay within a client's budgets, but at the same time never giving up on quality.   The Local Vault curates pieces from designer collections in some of the finest homes in the country including Holly Hunt, Knoll, Edward Ferrell, Oly Studios and more. It has become the designer's best kept secret and since many of these pieces are from staged properties, they are in the most pristine condition.

Happy Nesting
