Gallery Direct’s catalogue of home interior products offers a wide range of cabinets as part of its extensive furniture collection, which also includes other living and dining pieces, home office, bedroom and made-to-order upholstery.
James Hudson, commercial director, comments: “We are delighted to have won this award, and I would like to thank everyone who voted for us. We put a tremendous amount of hard work into designing and developing all our products, paying great attention to detail – not just to individual pieces, but also to collections and in pulling together key looks. To have this recognised and receive an award from the industry means a lot to the team.
“The last year and a half has been hard for everyone,” continues James, “and as a business we have faced challenges that we have not had before – but we worked hard to find solutions to overcome these. We have managed to keep a flow of products arriving here in the UK for our customers, and currently have a great range in stock ready for delivery.”
One of Gallery’s key strengths is its continual development of new products. Even with the difficulties faced during the pandemic, including no overseas travel to work with suppliers to bring its new designs to life, the team still managed to launch its impressive SS21 Collection earlier this year.
This includes an impressive selection of living and dining furniture, including the eye-catching Oklahoma. Inspired by the increasingly popular Japandi style, with a focus on natural textures, Oklahoma features a unique geometric design in a multi-tonal finish with black metal legs and simple round handles, bringing balance to each piece of furniture across the range. The collection offers a stylish drinks cabinet, a sideboard and a media unit – each works well as a standalone piece, or paired together.
Offering a completely different look is the Balotra sideboard (pictured), which makes a great feature piece. Crafted from mango wood, the doors are hand carved with an intricate design, with iron knobs to add the finishing touch.
Some of Gallery’s popular collections were extended, including the Milano with its notable chevron design. A two-door open display cabinet, two-drawer coffee table and round dining table were added to range.
However, the team did not stop after the launch of SS21, with new products being introduced at last month’s Harrogate Home & Gift show, including a preview of an extended outdoor furniture collection, and more new lines planned for the AW21 Collection, which will be launched at Autumn Fair.
