Chelsea Textiles was formed in 1990 to faithfully recreate antique textiles by hand, the originals of which are becoming vanishingly scarce. Over the past thirty years, Chelsea Textiles have not simply stayed rooted in their original mission, but have broadened their scope to include bedcovers, cushions and furniture. Similarly, they have extended their view of ‘antique’ to encompass vintage designs of the first half of the twentieth century, in both fabrics and furniture.

The company prides itself on using only authentic materials, hand-worked by master craftsmen into unique pieces which will stand the test of time, to become the antiques for future generations.

Sullivan Mercantile is a full-service cut and sew facility in Jeffersonville, New York manufacturing textile décor for the home, business, and hospitality.
