Throughout the Pearl District
The Home Furnishing Sample Sale will feature significant discounts on designer furniture, floor samples,
home accessories, draperies, linens, collectibles, art and lighting.

"We're very excited to help coordinate this event which is a Pearl District wide home furnishings sample sale,"
stated Joshua Ryan, Executive Director of the Pearl District Business Association. "This is an opportunity
for our Design Central for Home participants to work cooperatively and provide the public access to extraordinary
values on one-of-a-kind merchandise," he added.

Renee Russo, owner of EWF Modern stated, "This is not your 'average' sample sale. Many of our participating
stores have a policy about never having a sales. Many feature top-of-the-line, designer merchandise - and this
is the only time of the year where they will offer special discounts. It's very exciting," she concluded.

This incredible sales event lasts for just one week, so visit the Pearl District early for the best selection.
