Field + Supply Modern Craft Fair in the Catskills

On October 11 and 12, 2014, High Falls, New York, plays host to Field + Supply, a modern craft fair featuring work from a roster of Dwell favorites including Workstead, Egg Collective, The Commons, among others. "I'm really hoping to create an event in a new context where modern craft and design is elevated and taken more seriously while maintaining the spirit of a small town arts and crafts fair," organizer Brad Ford says.

The Bradford table plays to the theme of individual pieces that can be grouped as a whole. Prices range from $610 for the triangular wood-topped table to $1,290 for the stone hexagon; the bases are blackened steel.

Ford is looking forward to seeing BDDW's ceramics line, shown here, at the event. "I'd like to capture the attention of anyone that has an appreciation for beautiful, pure design and have them understand the dedication it takes to create a singular object or piece of furniture," says Ford of the audience he's trying to appeal to. "I respect manufacturing, but when you can incorporate something into your home that's made by hand, it instantly brings in a certain layer of soul and meaning."
