WHEELING, IL, August 12, 2010 (Press-News.org) Balancing sophistication and playfulness, each of the 18 patterns of the Gala collection engage the festive theme, whether its through bold color, unique textures, flowing patterns, or technical innovation. Six high performance upholsteries offer a combination of Nano-Tex, DuraBlock, or Crypton finishes in fresh colors, while eco-friendly faux leathers increase the variety of the Brentano Green label and new draperies add to Brentano's selection of distinctive window treatments.
