To us, quality is paramount and we aim for excellence in every single piece. We strive for innovative designs and create furniture to last lifetimes.
Founded in 1996 by the enigmatic Paul Maitland Smith, Theodore Alexander has become eminent in its field over the decades. Paul was an industry legend who pioneered high end furniture production throughout Asia for the last 25 years and was eventually inducted into the American Home Furnishings Hall of Fame in 2019. Paul was also a collector of antiques from a very young age and as his career progressed, strived to create antique reproductions better than even the originals.
Over the years, Theodore Alexander has become one of the leading manufacturers of handcrafted fine furniture, renowned as a unique brand embodying quality and originality in design. Our comprehensive collections consist of several thousand designs, providing casual, traditional and modern furniture, lighting and accessories to our clients.”

Maitland-Smith
“For 30 years Maitland-Smith has been in the business of creating exquisite and unique decorative accessories, lighting and accent furniture. Our design roots, however, go much deeper. Antiques from 17th and 18th Century England have always played an important role early in our history; inspiring designs that captured the appearance and quality of the originals. Over time, however, we have found that our designs have evolved and today incorporate style, materials and methods found in many other parts of the world.
Today Maitland-Smith is an industry leader well known for its world-class quality and innovative design. Our areas of expertise include metal casting, finely executed porcelains, sophisticated finishing techniques, detailed hand painting, beautiful inlaid marquetry and the finest hand carved woodwork. Leather, penshell and eggshell are just a few of the multitude of materials that are used to create Maitland-Smith treasures. At Maitland-Smith, we take great pride in the quality of our materials and the highly skilled artisans who fashion these unique pieces each year in our company-owned workshops. Our main office and showroom are located in High Point, North Carolina, where our design, marketing, sales and administrative staff are located.”
