SADDLE BROOK, N.J. -- Leading floor covering and home accents manufacturer Nourison shares a heartfelt tribute after the passing of designer Christopher Guy Harrison this week at 59.

"Christopher Guy Harrison has been a dear friend and business partner to Nourison for many years, having launched the Christopher Guy Area Rug Collection license and partnership at High Point Market in October 2017. Chris was a very unique and gifted gentleman, with vision, talent and class. This is a loss for all that knew him, and our industry," said Alex Peykar, principal at Nourison.
