Shelburne, VT, October 19, 2016 - Ethan Allen has announced that the company has taken over ownership of its Design Center in Shelburne, following the retirement of its longtime partner there, Michael Lash of Carriage Furniture Shop Inc.

'Mike Lash and this Design Center have been an important part of the Ethan Allen legacy in Vermont for nearly 40 years,' said the company's Chairman, President and CEO Farooq Kathwari. 'We wish Mike well in his retirement.'

Kathwari then added, 'Our company's namesake lived right here in the Burlington area, and our history of North American manufacturing continues in the Northeast Kingdom today. Ethan Allen, the man, was a great pioneer and we, as a company, embody that pioneering spirit as well. Vermont is a strong part of our DNA.'

Clients can expect a seamless transition during the change of ownership with the company continuing to focus on providing great service.

The Design Center has been refreshed with all of Ethan Allen's latest products and showcases the company's vast and varied selection of high-quality furniture, accents, and custom options.

Clients will also continue to have access to Ethan Allen's exceptional services, including white-glove, in-home delivery and complimentary design services provided by design professionals who can help as little or as much as they'd like.

An open floor plan, featuring user-friendly design stations and large touchscreens, invites clients to take the guesswork out of design and work directly with the company's design professionals.

In addition, clients can explore hundreds of designs displayed in 'shops' and inspirational room settings that include styles from Buckhead, Santa Monica, and Brooklyn-the company's versatile new looks.

Buckhead is a nod to Atlanta's posh suburb and offers a fresh take on traditional design, blending farmhouse and townhouse styles. Santa Monica's look is casual, sun-washed, and worry-free-inspired by the cool, relaxed vibe of its namesake coastal California town. Brooklyn represents everything people love about urban style, with an eclectic look that lives at the intersection of interior and industrial design.

And stay tuned! This fall, more design magic arrives at the Design Center as the company unveils its exciting new Ethan Allen | Disney collection.

Design Center hours are Monday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; Thursday-Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.; and Sunday, 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m.
