SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Pottery Barn, a member of the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) portfolio of brands, today debuted two exclusive capsule collections by West Coast-based designers, Shane Brown of Big Daddy’s Antiques and Pauline Boyd of Counterpane Quilts. Part of the Summer 2016 collection, these capsule collections are available online at potterybarn.com and select pieces will be featured in Pottery Barn stores nationwide.
Shane Brown of Big Daddy’s Antiques is an antiques hunter and furniture designer, well-known for outfitting celebrity homes and high-end retail spaces. Brown travels the world in search of one-of-a-kind vintage pieces and his retail locations in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Houston, Aspen and Seattle house his vast antiques collections and original custom pieces. Pauline Boyd is the Los Angeles-based textile artist behind Counterpane Quilts. Inspired by the quilt making tradition of Gee’s Bend, Alabama and Japanese Boro techniques, she has created her own modern masterpieces updating the art of conventional quilt construction with the use of vintage clothing and exotic textiles.

Her collection for Pottery Barn offers our customers heirloom quality quilts and pillows that complement any home.”
