CA Gift, formerly Cathedral Art Metal, is headed for the Atlanta winter gift market with an expanded line featuring the works of two prominent artists. Both artists will make personal appearances during the show.

The Providence, Rhode Island-based designer, manufacturer and marketer of gifts and décor is now being represented by The Rep Connection.

“Our exhibit in their beautiful AmericasMart showroom will showcase the inspiring gifts created by two highly talented artists—Caroline Simas and Carol Eldridge—who will also make personal appearances during the January show,” said Leo Tracey, CA Gift president. “We invite retailers attending the winter market to visit us in The Rep Connection showrooms at 1407-1411 in AmericasMart.”

The new lines from Simas and Eldridge are created in artmetal, a hand-cast recycled aluminum alloy that is painted and infused with the artist’s designs, and each piece is individually hand-polished.

Simas is well known in the industry for her Multiple Blessings brand of gifts and decorative accessories. The “Alleluia Collection” from the Charlotte, North Carolina-based artist includes faith-based plaques, crosses, visor clips and jewelry, each with a special blessing for the recipient. Simas will be at the showroom Friday, Jan. 9, at 5 p.m., to sign items from her new collection.

Eldridge of Carol Eldridge Designs has been designing a wide range of gifts, home decor and other products from her studio in Marblehead, Massachusetts, for more than 25 years. Her new line for CA Gift—“Always An Angel”—features faith-based designs with a touch of whimsy. Eldridge will make an appearance in the showroom Saturday, Jan. 10, at 4 p.m., and also will be signing items from her new collection.
