Two hundred years is a long time to be getting something right — and Lee Jofa has used every one of them to build what may be the most respected indoor fabric legacy in the American design industry. Tracing its origins to 1823, when Englishman George Johnson opened a rigging and upholstery supply business on the docks of New York City, and shaped decisively by its 1965 alliance with the ground-breaking weaving house Arthur H. Lee & Sons, Lee Jofa has spent two centuries mastering what it calls the delicate harmony between past, present, and future. Today, as a cornerstone of the Kravet portfolio, the brand continues to produce and introduce indoor fabrics, outdoor performance fabrics, decorative trim and wallcovering that are simultaneously rooted in an extraordinary documentary heritage and genuinely responsive to where design is headed — a balance that has made Lee Jofa a go-to source for some of the most acclaimed designers working across every era.
Lee Jofa's indoor fabric collection is one of the most comprehensive luxury textile offerings available to the design trade, spanning upholstery, drapery, and multipurpose constructions across prints, wovens, velvets, embroideries, hand-blocked textiles, hand-screened prints, silks, linens, chintzes, and chenilles. At its heritage core, the collection features iconic large-scale florals, classical documentary prints, and the celebrated Blithfield Prints collection — including the Grenville Glazed Chintz, Althea floral on linen, and Hollyhock — alongside the Coventry Velvets, a collection of five exquisite jacquard-woven velvets, and the Northwood Weaves, nine exceptional upholstery-weight textured constructions. Designer collaborations have long defined Lee Jofa's contemporary direction: Kelly Wearstler's multiple collections — including Avondale, the Whitley Hall series, and Manor House — bring her signature graphic modernism and bold material sensibility to the portfolio, while the Oscar de la Renta collections add chic, multi-cultural elegance and luxurious embroidery work. Lee Jofa Modern, the brand's contemporary sub-line, introduces fresh prints and weaves with a decidedly current urban aesthetic, including the Transit series inspired by inner-city street art and New York's SoHo neighborhood. The Lilly Pulitzer collaboration extends the collection further with resort-inspired, vibrantly colored patterns that bring an entirely different kind of energy to the brand's remarkably broad design vocabulary.
