The Early Bird Gets the First Look at New WKA Introductions.

You heard it right.  Market is extra early this year, but we're more than ready.  We've completed our set up and are ready to show you our hundreds of Spring 2011 Introductions.  You've seen the sneak peeks, now be one of the first to see them in person.

We will be in our showroom today, Thursday, March 30, until 5 pm.  If you are in High Point early, it's the best time to stop by and see our beautiful showroom.  Can't make it today?  That's okay, we open at 8 am tomorrow, Friday, April 1 for the official start of market.  Remember, our one-of-a-kind antiques tend to go quickly so stop by early for the best selection.

Just ONE WEEK until Market.

That's right.  It's hard to believe that it's that time already, but we are a mere 7 days until W. King Ambler is open in High Point.  A few important things to remember:


•  200 N. Hamilton, 101 North Court (next to the elevators)  •
in the Hamilton Wrenn District
We open early at 8 am on April 1, 2011
And we're open late on Sunday!


As always, we're the place to find your antique prints - be sure to come early for the best selection, it's first come, first serve - and don't forget that you can bring in your own artwork for custom framing.

And as far as our spring line?  We're happy to say that we were feeling particularly inspired over the last few months and are introducing more new sets this market than in the last several markets.  We've given you a few glimpses so far and this week is no exception.

Second Best Seller From Fall Market


This group, Proust Views P2025-05365 was second place by a narrow margin.  They are very dramatic, playful and styled in a sophisticated manner.  The images were taken from the orignial antique print in the novel Swann's Way by Marcel Proust with illustrations by the artist Bernard Lamotte. Published in Paris in 1917. These are a WKA exclusive (we are the publisher). 

Since the group photo taken from the showroom is difficult to see, here are a few of the group's pictures as seen on our website.  Overall size of each picture is:      19 1/2" H x 15 1/2 W
