Thomas Jayne has had his own design firm in New York City since 1990. He is incredibly knowledgeable on decorative arts, having been a graduate fellow of Winterthur Museum's Architecture and Decorative Arts program, among other academic accomplishments. He is also incredibly funny and warm. I have many friends who have worked for him and they all have great friendships with him, years later.

The aesthete and academic has done a charming collection of needlepoint pillows, lighting, mirrors and waste bins for Chelsea House. The designs are really clean and pared down--so easy to use. His color palette is pure Americana: bottle green, terra cotta red, chocolate brown and gray blue. Call 704 867-5926 to get your nearest retailer. The goods should be available in October. Enjoy!
