SeaCloth was born out of the combined talent and shared vision of two entrepreneurial women, Susan Harris and Deirdre Halper. Susan, an accomplished fine artist, became convinced that art should not be confined to a frame. Testing her theory she tried her hand at textile design. Deirdre, a former marketing executive, met Susan and after seeing her work, immediately envisioned not only textiles, but an entire lifestyle brand. The complimentary skills of the two set into motion, SeaCloth. In 2003, the SeaCloth launched four initial collections-Gypsy Palette, Watermark, Sun Splash and Beach Party in design showrooms including John Rosselli & Associates in New York City and Washington, D.C., and in Ainsworth Noah in Atlanta. By early 2004, the first SeaCloth retail store opened in Greenwich, Connecticut showcasing the company's textiles and comprehensive line of home furnishings and decorative accessories. SeaCloth continues to blossom. Susan and Deirdre spend their time working with the SeaCloth team designing additional collections, developing new products and expanding into design showrooms across the country.
