Paul Maitland Smith has been well-known and respected in the home furnishings industry since 1957, when he earned a solid reputation as a London-based antiques dealer and purveyor of reproduction furniture. He founded Maitland-Smith in 1979 after he had emigrated to Hong Kong and began manufacturing reproduction 18th century furniture and decorative accessories, sourcing product from Hong Kong, Thailand, China, and the Philippines.
Over time, he sold that company and founded Paul Maitland International, which manufactures occasional furniture and home accents. In 1996, his entrepreneurial spirit led to a new division, Theodore Alexander.
