Wal-mart Solid Wood, Veneer Furniture Designed by Nicholas SparksBENTONVILLE, AR - Wal-mart's (NYSE: WMT) Sams Club unit has launched a furniture collection with Nicholas Sparks, the best-selling novelist and screenwriter.

The Black Mountain Collection was designed by Sparks with a Carolina coastal style in its six pieces, suing solid wood and solid wood veneer construction with hand applied finishes. 

“When I designed this collection, I wanted the pieces to have a true craftsmanship that was both beautiful and comfortable,” said Nicholas Sparks.

Sparks says the collection springs from his most recent novel, The Longest Ride, and will appear in an upcoming 20th Century Fox film adaptation starring Scott Eastwood and Britt Robertson to be released April 10, 2015. Set in Black Mountain, NC, the quaint town serves as the backdrop for the novel.
