Sphinx by Oriental Weavers will host a “Kindle Your Fire” party at the Atlanta Area Rug Market on Jan. 12, 2012, from 4 to 7 in its showroom space #3A2. Sphinx will give away a new Kindle Fire tablet every 30 minutes during the party and the hor d’oeuvres and drinks will also have a “fiery” theme.

“2011 has been a great year for our company and the industry. We are excited about the positive momentum we see in the area rug business and we wanted to start 2012 off with an event to share our enthusiasm with our customers and industry partners,” said Michael Riley, president of Oriental Weavers USA. “The event will also give our team and customers an opportunity to come together and see our new introductions for 2012”  

Sphinx will introduce eight new collections of Axminster, machine-woven, handcrafted, and indoor/outdoor products to kick off the new year. The company will also showcase several new “Made in the USA” area rug collections and additions to its patterned broadloom and custom rug programs.
