Palecek got its start 35 years ago in the San Francisco Bay Area. Thanks to a loyal customer base and innovative designs, Palecek has expanded to include wood, wicker, rattan and metal furniture, domestic upholstery and finishing, lighting, wall décor, textiles, accessories and gifts. Palecek’s domestic manufacturing headquarters is one of the largest employers in Richmond, California. With seven national showrooms, Palecek has become the premiere company within its niche.
“While Palecek has grown, it has maintained a steady, tangible connection to its roots in woven basketry,” said Randy Wells, vice president, Las Vegas Design Center. “There is a link to that core competency of woven natural materials that is visible in everything Palecek creates. The result is a beautiful product line and a terrific, unique brand. Over the years, Palecek has flourished as a full-line furniture, lighting and accessories company that is a staple for many designers, and we are very excited to have them as a part of Las Vegas Design Center.”
