Latest Introductions from Young & Norgate


As a small group of designers and craftsmen, Devon, England-based

Young & Norgate

is know for contemporary furnishings that are both elegant and timeless. Each piece is crafted by hand using using the highest quality materials available: from FSC certified timbers hand picked from local suppliers, to premium leathers from Scotland. The company’s newest introductions include the redesign of the Animate bedside table, a piece that  exposes the drawer mechanics in such a way that the function becomes the aesthetic. There’s also the Folk table, a dining table ideal for small gatherings, featuring a frame structure that is unobtrusive from any seating placement. The designers also created the Wonder cabinet to show off curiosities using traditional frame and panel constructions, but presented in a minimal modern exterior.
