Petals Decorative Accents Inc, originally founded in 1939, sells decorative silk flowers, plants and trees, along with complementary decorative accents, which include mirrors, small furniture pieces, figurines, lamps and rugs.
Petals sells its products through its mail order catalog and website, importing most of the floral stems and other materials used in its products primarily from China, which are then assembled in facilities within the United States.
Commented Don Jones, Total Luxury's Chairman: "We believe that there is a tremendous opportunity to bring these two companies together.
Not only do we believe that there are certain economies of scale that can be brought by combining these two companies, but we believe there are cross-marketing opportunities that we can take advantage of as well." Mr. Jones will serve as CEO of the two companies.
