AmericasMart is unveiling Design South Africa Home Lifestyle in a new 3,000-square-foot showroom (located on floor 10, 10C5), the latest addition to the Home Accents & Fine Linens Center.

Design South Africa Home Lifestyle is presenting exclusively South African hand-embroidered linens, mohair throws, Nguni cowhide rugs and cushions, hand-painted fabrics, tribal beaded accessories, and other goods, said AmericasMart.

"We are honored to represent the best textiles and home accessories that South Africa has to offer," says Sue Allpass, one of the owners of Vici International who has been contracted by the South Africa Department of Trade & Industry and the South African Textile Industry Export Council to manage the showroom. "We're delighted to be exhibiting at AmericasMart."

The exhibition operator said, "Each of the more than a dozen product lines presents the essence of South African resources but incorporates a very sophisticated and contemporary ambiance."
