Jonathan Fawcett will launch its 1,400 thread count bed linen collection, which is the highest possible quality and is currently unique to the brand.
The products illustrate both brands’ expertise, with Kevin Glancy supplying the most exquisite porcelain, crystal and silver, while Jonathan Fawcett specialises in luxury linen, towels and accessories.
Jason Hales, sales director at Kevin Glancy and Jonathan Fawcett, said: “We were impressed by the calibre of exhibitors and delegates at last year’s inaugural show and feel there is a real appetite for us to surpass expectations at the 2016 event.
“We are confident that the collections we have sourced and selected to display at the event, combined with our team’s unrivalled expertise, will encourage visitors to meet with us at the stand and understand more about our world-renowned approach to serving the industry’s needs. These stunning pieces will also be added to our carefully curated collection on display at our headquarters after the event, where we welcome anybody who was unable to attend the London event.”
