Gibson expands its offering to include fun and playful products with a sophisticated design style for kids.

In keeping with its tradition of excellence, C.R. Gibson also introduces new baby collections from America’s #1 children’s apparel brand, Carter’s, called Blossom, and a new memory collection from Sybille Lichtenstein called Toot-Toot, featuring a car-shaped ceramic bank in special hat box-styled packaging.

All baby and kids’ collections will debut this January as part of C.R. Gibson’s Brand’s New Dayproduct launch starting at the Atlanta Gift Show in January in the company’s newly remodeled showroom, AmericasMart Building 2, Suite 1837, and in OneCoast showrooms in Dallas (Suite 256) and Las Vegas (C-803).
