No, it’s NOT a construction company! Hable Construction is a textile and accessories manufacturer, based in New York City. Founded in 1999 by sisters Katharine and Susan and named for their grandfather’s construction company in Texas. Combining fine art and marketing backgrounds, the sisters Hable are keen on color… using clean, graphic, sophisticated and bold hues and motifs. Their very first products were these Christmas stockings. I first saw them at Garnet Hill, although I’m not sure if they were at other retailers or catalogs.
Watch for them again, next Christmas… and now there are rugs and outdoor mats.

From their fabric line, to the trade:
It’s the attention to detail that makes Hable Construction so outstanding; and, the artisans they use outside the U.S., in Hungary, are all employed under the Fair Trade program. Take a look at their site!
