Norwalk , Conn. – Tom Roth has relaunched his decorative fabrics company, Weathervane Hill, after selling his business and a two-year hiatus. Roth had sold his business to a newly named company, Roth & Tomkins Textiles.

The new business is targeted to a higher-end market in all channels of distribution, with its first collection called Plantation House, “a refined and understated mix of texture and color.”

The company has a long-standing relationship with an Indian mill that has produced his signature yarn dyes for more than 20 years. “We’ve spent the last two years developing a line that is unique. We’ve had the luxury of time and the result is gratifying,” Roth said.
